John 6:50-58

⁵⁰The bread that comes down from heaven is such that whoever eats of it will never die.

⁵¹I am the living bread that has come down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, they will live for ever; and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”

⁵²They began disputing with one another, “How is it possible for this man to give us his flesh to eat?”

⁵³“In truth I tell you,” answered Jesus, “unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and drink his blood, you have not life within you.

⁵⁴Everyone who takes my flesh for their food, and drinks my blood, has eternal life; and I will raise them up at the Last day.

⁵⁵For my flesh is true food, and my blood true drink.

⁵⁶Everyone who takes my flesh for their food, and drinks my blood, remains united to me, and I to them.

⁵⁷As the living Father sent me as his messenger, and as I live because the Father lives, so the person who takes me for their food will live because I live.

⁵⁸That is the bread which has come down from heaven — not such as your ancestors ate, and yet died; the person who takes this bread for their food will live for ever.”
