[Petrosius]

Jesus did indeed correct or rebuke the Apostles on many occasions but the Bread of Life Discourse is the only time that He questioned their faith and asked them if they too wished to leave Him. And He did this over His statement that they must eat His Flesh and drink His Blood. It was not over the requirement that we must believe in Him. His disciples had believed in Him until He said that they must eat His Body and drink His flesh.

15And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.

16“He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned [notice what He did not say....nothing about eating/drinking flesh/blood....but about believing]. Mark 16:14-16

Believing in Him includes believing and obeying what He taught, such as "This is my Body and this is my Blood." This is part of the gospel and we are not free to discard it because it does not fit in with our 16th century theology.

Well, you’ve changed your position on Jesus never challenging His disciples. Roman Catholics may know Rome’s dogmas but they are woefully lacking in knowing the Word. More later.
