Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. For my flesh is true food and my blood is true drink (John 6:53-55).
Got in a lot of trouble in Sunday school for that one.
It was fun.
How did you get in trouble for that? Why would you? Just wondering.
I get constant static about this "Jesus Flesh and Blood" part of Holy Communion by one of the Protestants who says that it's a SIN to eat flesh and drink blood. He's a cantankerous, cynical grouchy old bear, anyway, who doesn't like my uberCatholic posts AT ALL. Oh well.
I've saved this Scripture from John and will drag it out if I ever encounter him again. I AVOID those anti-Catholic-posts. I just let them FLOAT right past my eyes.
Thank you for posting it.
