you are calling Jesus Absurd??

Jesus very, very clearly in John 6:30-36 says “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.'

People start murmuring

Jesus repeats 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died. 50 But here is the bread that comes down from heaven, which anyone may eat and not die. 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”

NOW the crowd of disbelievers like you are OPENLY REBELLING against Jesus - “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”

What does Jesus do?

Jesus TRIPLES down that the Eucharist is His flesh

53 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. 54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.

55 For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink.

56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them.

57 Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me.

58 This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your ancestors ate manna and died, but whoever feeds on this bread will live forever

Jesus doesn't clear up the Metaphor - he TRIPLES down on it

And people like you leave Jesus because of what He says

"What does Jesus do? Jesus TRIPLES down that the Eucharist is His flesh "

Your recourse is to simply assert again what has been refuted, and thus no more needs to be said!

And people like you call out, "Lord - Lord" while disobeying His words: "Call no man father."
