Eating Flesh and Drinking Blood
John 6:53-60,66 Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. 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. This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your forefathers ate manna and died, but he who feeds on this bread will live forever." He said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.
On hearing it, many of his disciples said, "This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?"
..From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him.
PERSONAL COMMENTARY
Put yourself in the shoes of these disciples. Would you leave also?
Happy Easter!

Put yourself in the shoes of a mortal man. You're told: "Do this and receive eternal life". Seems like a no-brainer.
Happy Easter!
Jesus was a Borderline Personality and perhaps a bit of a Narcissist.
Many BPD and NPD and Bi-Polar patients have god-complexes and now we medicate them or hospitalize them until they stabilize.
Also, if he is virgin birth and Joseph was clearly the one with David's bloodline (DNA), not Mary, than Jesus was not a descendant of David at all (none of Joseph's DNA means none of David's DNA) and the messiah prophecy is unfulfilled in Jesus.
Bottom line... Why would a supreme bing need the bloodshed of animals to forgive me of stealing or masturbation in the first place.
Animal sacrifice is the stuff of primitive morons, when will christians wake up and admit to that.
Than thousands of years later he takes human form and I now need god's blood or his son's blood or more simply human blood sacrifice to clean me of sin and make me fit for heaven?
This is stupid, primitive, superstitious crap and based on the ultimate fear of death and the fact that blood was worship and esteem by almost every ancient religion in some way BECAUSE it was associated with death AND death scares the shit out of ignorant people even in 2007.
FYI Jason...
Easter is a Babylonian celebration based on the goddess Eostre whom also had resurrecting powers thousands of years before Christ plagiarized her. Easter was originally about spring which was the rebirth or resurrection of the growth season for all agricultural societies for which winter was like the death season.
The no-brainers are people who don't even understand the crap they are defending and evangelizing.
jason - your comment is nearly Pascal's wager restated. it seems silly but just trust me, drink this "blood" and eat this "flesh", and you'll live forever. I know it sounds really really crazy, but even if I'm not telling the truth, what've you got to lose? Any if I'm right, well, you've scored big time.
Martin: *claps*
That was awesome. I agree with you 100%
Mitzi: *claps again*
That was hilarious.
Jason and Alan: Is okay to defend what you believe in, but just understand, all this Bible thing was taught to me once, and even tho I used to call myself a "christian" I was ALWAYS secretly either angry, disgusted at least a little bit and very, very scared.
And If you do something for eternal life, that is not what your God wants, according to the Bible. Is "Love" and only honest love for Him, or whatever. Is like someone loving a parent for the money.
Christians always contradict themselves way too much.
more people who don't understand what is metaphorical, symbolic, and how to interpret a message of divinity. have fun with the first death. be sure to repent if you're lucky enough to be resurrected.
maybe this God's word stuff is different than you think, and you just can't see the signs and proof because you have been separated from the creator.
once you feel the spirit and follow the guidance and unity it brings to others around you, you will understand the bible as more of a guidebook for obtaining "the force", kind of like in Star Wars. you have to do something big, you have to stand up against corruption, you have to change the world, you have to save people's lives, you have to protect the children, you have to be righteous.
wake up all you non believers. it's real. the ships are real, the devil is real, the angels are real, and God is most definitely real.
it's all about LOVE. God bless.
also I can see this Martin guy, this is the kind of illusions these deceivers use to separate us. when you have faith and you have seen the truth, you start to realize there is much more to the brain than a bunch of illusions and so called mental illnesses. that stuff was created to make money and to profit from others' suffering, and if you notice, the people who practice it are almost always uncaring and ruthlessly against any kind of spiritual freedom. these drugs they are giving to our children and spiritually misguided, to the sick, to people who are misdiagnosed with mental illnesses yet have complex and severe neurological conditions like meningitis or encephalitis, they are poison, not medicine. it is EVIL and WRONG what psychiatry has done to so many people, and these so called doctors knowingly let the cycle continue, because they are ignorant and cruel. they thrive on illusions and their greed, a superiority complex, a Godless nature that defies all creation.
believe, children, God is real, Muslims, Christians, Buddhists, Shamans, Wiccans, even the pagans and so called heathens, the time is now to UNITE against these corrupt blasphemers, and to show them the truth, to lead them to enlightenment. follow your calling, and live honestly, peacefully, and just try repenting for a month. no immoral sex, no drugs, no sins at all. see what happens. you can write it off, or you can see the gateway to the divine knowledge.
we are sealed by God. they can mark us with their consciousness prison machines, their star computers, whatever it is, their devil toys do not scare OUR people, because we ARE sealed, and maybe you all are unable to see our dimension, but it is real.
look around you. all the illusions, the reptilian conspiracies, the alien encounters, the disinformation as well. there are good angels and bad angels. I chose to spill my cup, I chose to seek the truth, I chose to sacrifice myself, and I love what I have done, and what I proved to the world, and they can cover it up and have their false prophets and lies, and tell their minions I'm the antichrist and the devil and Lucifer or whatever they want to say, but these are crucial times, and you have to wake up and see the bigger picture. quit picking apart the word and reach deeper, into your roots as a created being on this earth.
time travel is possible, angels can revive from the dead, Jesus has come, and is with us, as an angel, and with the father and his holy spirit, and Muslims and Christians and all of the world, believing or not, should at least hear this and know that it isn't a joke or some bible brainwashing nonsense or an illusion. I have seen it, and I know it is real. it's not a government mind control program, they tried to stop me and take away my abilities, and the way they do it is with this poison and these surgeries, and there are sorcerers and people who are merely hosts to something most will never see or understand in their lifetime. but God leads us, the spirit leads us, and the trinity reveals the truth about our nature and this reality, what it really is.
don't forget who you are, and where you came from, or it will separate you from the love and eternal life that is available to everyone.
go ahead and mock me and attack me, I've had the worst, I've been beaten and harassed, had torture devices inserted in me, have had my blood used in their rituals, have seen their lies up close and in person, and I have been to places most of you wouldn't believe exist.
there's a reason this knowledge is forbidden, because it could lead you to the devil himself... or to an interdimensional paradise where there's no time and you can do anything, the first stair in the stairway to heaven. whatever you want to call it.
I never read the bible or even started reading it until after most of what I experienced happened, so to all the frauds who try to cut me down and say it's not real, to all the psychiatrists who think God is in your head and Jesus was some kind of psycho doofus bi polar personality blah blah blah, do you know how STUPID you sound to the enlightened? you wouldn't even make it into the first stages of being, and probably don't even realize that a lot of people are already inside your head, angels are watching and recording everything you do, and God is EVERYTHING period.
so you see, hindsight is 20/20, but at least it's not just another conspiracy.
I felt the need to share. stay true, faith is the ultimate weapon, faith and love, forgiveness and peace. those are our weapons. God does the rest. believe it.
Martin: Both Mary and Joseph were descendants of David so Jesus was a descendant of David fulfilling the prophecy and if you believe that Jesus was crazy how do you explain the miracles he preformed there was no technology at that time to fake miracles that big and also how do you explain the fact that Christianity is one of the longest lasting religions this world has ever seen and is still going as one of the strongest
Jesus is The Word Of GOD. His FLESH Is GOD's WORD; His Blood is GOD's WORD.. This is completely out of context. You didn't mention that Jesus had just finished saying He Is The Bread Of Life. Jesus is referring to Deuteronomy 8:3 where GOD gave them manna from heaven to eat, but 8:3 says "man shall not live by bread alone, but by Every Word Of GOD"
looking at this literally doesn't mean Jesus was speaking of literal flesh/blood- HE is not flesh and blood He is GOD and His Word is our Daily Bread and our Life-Blood.
If we need to do this in 2012, Then where would one get his real blood and flesh???
