I was just reading through Leviticus today and came across this verse.....

Leviticus 6:30 But no sin offering shall be eaten from which any blood is brought into the tent of meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place; it shall be burned up with fire.

Sin offerings are NOT to be eaten. Period.

And this..... Leviticus 7:26-27 26 Moreover, you shall eat no blood whatever, whether of fowl or of animal, in any of your dwelling places. 27 Whoever eats any blood, that person shall be cut off from his people.”

The RCC takes the one verse but doesn’t want the rest of that passage understood.

John 6:54 He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. 55 For My flesh is true food, and My blood is true drink. 56 He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. Now let’s go to the next verse where Jesus begins to explain.

57 As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats Me, he also will live because of Me. 58 This is the bread which came down out of heaven; not as the fathers ate and died; he who eats this bread will live forever.

Notice where He said “this is the breadwhich came down out of heaven? Jesus was not talking about His physical flesh. Jesus said His words are spirit, not flesh.

John 6:63 The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life,

It’s the spirit that giveth life, not the flesh.

2 Cor. 3:6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.

Follow the letter as the RCC teaches but remember what 2 Cor. 3:6 says.
