Someone walks away from the Eucharist, the single most intimate relationship one can have with Jesus, and acts as tho it’s no big deal. Obviously hadn’t believed John 6. A true tragedy. Truly.

Eating Jesus is the single more intimate relationship we can have with Him?

Not according to Scripture.

Having Him live in our hearts 24/7 is.

Being filled with His Holy Spirit and having constant spiritual communion with Him is.

Eating Him? Not so much.

Micah 6:8
He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.


John 6:28-29
Then they asked him, "What must we do to do the works God requires?
 Jesus answered, "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent."


1 John 3:21-23
Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him.
And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.


James 1:27
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
