John 6
60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?
63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
why is it that the 12 Apostles who believed and were taught by Jesus for three and one half years said nothing about it.
It is evident that there was nothing to say about it, Jesus said do this in remembrance of me and most likely that is what they did.
Jesus was trying to make it understood that a full belly was not what he was all about but that the words he was saying to them was life everlasting.
This is truly a hard saying and some of the people took it literal and that is why they no longer followed Jesus.
The people who took what Jesus said literally were not interested in salvation but only a full belly, and did not believe him.
The ones who stayed with him knew that he was speaking of eternal life and they believed.
His words are the bread of life.
BUMP...
