John 6:53-63

EJ2000(i) 53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Unless ye eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, ye shall have no life in you. 54 Whosoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. 56 He that eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. 57 As the living Father has sent me, and I live by the Father, so he that eats me, he shall also live by me. 58 This is the bread which came down from heaven; not as your fathers ate manna and are dead; he that eats of this bread shall live eternally. 59 He said these things in the synagogue as he taught in Capernaum. 60 ¶ Many therefore of his disciples when they had heard this said, This is a hard word; who can hear it? 61 But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at it, said unto them, Does this offend you? 62 What if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before? 63 The Spirit is he that gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words that I have spoken unto you, they are Spirit and they are life.
