Is John 6:66 Evidence of Transubstantiation?

I don't know, but Genesis 2:7 is.

I don't think that it's the same thing. When God formed the first man out of the dust of the earth (of which He created from nothing in the first place) and breathed into him the breath of life and man became a living soul, this was God creating something totally new, not taking something of one substance and changing it into a completely different substance. I recall reading about how our physical bodies are remarkably like the dust of the earth in mineral content. We ARE carbon life forms after all.

    In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. (Gen. 3:19)

Oh?

I see no evidence of dust being EATEN and then turning into flesh.


Genesis 2:7 NKJV
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.
