Your commnet: That verse they use as a proof text for eating flesh and drinking blood, violates the entire weight of Scripture up to that point. Jesus could not have done it.

How do you know? Are you saying that Jesus was not truthful?

You do not accept the word of Jesus. You do not believe. You are not required to accept the teachings of the Catholic Church, but I do not understand why you do not believe when Jesus says something very clearly.

Many have tried to inform you, but need faith and inspiration from the Holy Spirit to fully understand.

Because if Jesus violated the Law in consuming blood, He would have sinned, become a law breaker, and could have not been the spotless, sinless Lamb of God who could take away the sins of the world.

The only reason His death was efficacious was that He was without sin. That's the only reason He could conquer sin and death.

If he had broken the Law, He would have sinned.

Therefore, He could not have eaten His flesh or drank his blood. It would have been impossible.

Y'all need to think through what you believe once in a while.
