Every single example cited is one taken out of context by the Roman Catholic religion in order to empower the false dogmas of that false Christianity.

You strain at 'This is my body', ignoring what JESUS told these same seekers after signs just a few verses earlier.

You completely ignore or twist to destruction the very first council of Ekklesia Fathers when you insist you ingest the blood of Christ at your blasphemous Mass.

You presume your Org (rhymes with Borg) has inherited the authority given to JUST THE TWELVE, all of whom are long dead from the body.

You lift words spoken to the Jews BEFORE the Cross of our salvation, making them seem to reveal duplicity in God's message to us. Then expect those seeking God to follow your false teachers and Magicsteeringthem and Pope to obtain, eventually, what God Promises is an immediate event when someone believes in Him Whom God has sent for their salvation.

In John 6 JESUS tells you that the work of God is to believe on Him Whom God sent. But you don't take Him at His Word and whittle away at the simple Gospel of Grace adding all manner of works which can only be approved through your false Christianity ORG.

And finally you spittle out a seeming contracdiction to the Gospel of Grace, asserting we must be keepers of the Law of Moses to eventually obtain salvation!

You are serving the spirit of antichrist with institutionalized vigor which would make the Pharisees of Jesus Day jealous of your ORG controls. Rhymes with Borg, and is pretty close to a facsimile of same!

If you are referring to John 6, then our Lord's response was that he would give them the true bread from heaven which is his flesh which they must eat. When the Jews quarreled among themselves, saying "How can they man give us his flesh to eat?", he emphasized the reality of this:

Jesus said to them, “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him." (John 6:53-56)
It really cannot get more blunt than this. Those of his disciples who could not accept this returned to their former way of life and no longer accompanied him. Will you too reject what our Lord said and no longer accompany him?

You completely ignore or twist to destruction the very first council of Ekklesia Fathers when you insist you ingest the blood of Christ at your blasphemous Mass.

The decision of the Council of Jerusalem concerned the blood from pagan sacrifices. Our Lord said what he did in John 6 and at the Last Supper. We take him at his word. Will not you?

In John 6 JESUS tells you that the work of God is to believe on Him Whom God sent.

To believe in him is to believe all that he taught us, not just that he died for us. He taught us that we must keep love God and our neighbors, and that we must keep the commandments. There was no exception in this just because someone has faith.

And finally you spittle out a seeming contracdiction to the Gospel of Grace, asserting we must be keepers of the Law of Moses to eventually obtain salvation!

Do you even bother to read what I have written. I have argued for just the opposite, that works that Paul contrasted to faith were those of the Law of Moses. I have mentioned that the whole point of Romans was to proclaim that this was no longer binding. This being opposed to the Protestant idea that in Romans he was arguing against any works.
