Friday (May9) My Reflection He who eats this bread will live forever Scripture: John 6:52-59 There is no reason why we should interpret eating and drinking in a different way from Jesus’ earlier explanation. The primary passages cited to support the doctrine of transubstantiation are in John chapter 6. In this chapter, Jesus makes statements such as these: Jesus therefore said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves. He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. For My flesh is true food, and My blood is true drink. He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. (John 6:53-56) All this is possible because Jesus is God and God who is almighty can do all things.
