[FatherofFive]

So tell me, what does this verse from Scripture mean?

Jesus said to them, "Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. John 6:53

it seems to say we need to eat his flesh. He turned bread into his flesh, so we may eat it.

What part do you not understand?

I understand it to be a spiritual illustration. Because Jesus said, It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.
