In today’s study, we dive into one of Jesus' most provocative teachings found in John 6. Following the miraculous feeding of the 5,000, Jesus declares Himself to be the "Bread of Life," making statements that seem deeply offensive to His audience, especially in a synagogue context. We unpack the bold and startling language of "eating His flesh and drinking His blood" and explore the early church's struggle with accusations of cannibalism. We also discuss the challenge of understanding John’s Gospel, which often requires spiritual insight and a willingness to grapple with complex theological truths. Join us as we wrestle with these words and their meaning for faith and discipleship.
