John 6: What 'Eat My Flesh' REALLY Means


Listen Later

🔥 In John 6:52-59, is Jesus Really Asking Us to EAT His Flesh? The SHOCKING Truth About John 6 That Religious People Don't Want You to Know What did Jesus REALLY mean when He told the crowds to "eat my flesh and drink my blood"? This verse in John 6 has confused believers and sparked heated debates for centuries—but the answer is clearer than you think when you understand the context. In this powerful expository sermon, Pastor Fortunato tackles one of the most controversial passages in Scripture: John 6:52-59, where Jesus declares Himself the "bread of life" and commands His followers to consume His flesh and blood. 📖 What You'll Discover: Many religious traditions teach that Jesus was speaking literally about the communion elements—but does that interpretation hold up against Scripture? This verse-by-verse Bible study reveals why John 6 CANNOT be about physical bread and wine, examining the Old Testament context that the Jewish audience would have immediately recognized. We'll explore the figure of speech Jesus was using, why the Jews were so offended, how Deuteronomy 28 and Leviticus 17 prove this is spiritual truth, and what it truly means to "dwell in Christ" and have Christ dwell in you. This is NOT about religious rituals or weekly ceremonies—it's about an eternal, spiritual union with Jesus Christ. If you've ever wondered about transubstantiation, the Catholic Mass, or what Jesus meant by eating His flesh and drinking His blood, this sermon provides biblical answers from Genesis to Revelation. Understanding the spiritual meaning of John 6 is essential to grasping how we receive eternal life through faith in Christ's sacrificial death.
