Thats not what Jesus said
He said whoever eats of that food which endures forever will never hunger never thirst, live forever. Has eternal life. and will never die
I am not sure why you can not accept his promise. and understanding
Jesus did not promise he would be eternal. His promise was who ever partook of him, would live as long as he lives
Before you try to teach, You should learn to listen.
You just spouted about symbolism. And yet you ignore the symbolic aspect of the message. They symbolic aspect is the bread, the flesh and the blood. Jesus is not saying eat my literal flesh and blood. They were symbolic.
Jesus said the truth, the flesh and blood represent his words. which is the true food which endures forever. Remember, the word is called the bread of life.
32 Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”
35 And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.
47 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”
53 Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever 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 who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. 57 As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. 58 This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.”
The fact is, The Eucharist does not promise any of the things highlighted here.
Now if you said one could partake of the flesh and blood. and they at moment wouLD NEVER HUNGER NEVER THIRST, WILL NOT DIE, WILL LIVE FOREVER, Then I could see them being the same, but since no one is guaranteed any of those things when taking the eucharist. I must reject it as being the bread from heaven.
The true bread is as Peter Acknowledge The words. As Jesus said, the WORDS I speak are SPIRIT, and they are LIFE
Jesus is telling the people. GNAW on the word. Don;t just taste it, Take your time, EAT AND DRINK ALL.. DO this, and come to believe in him and you will have all these things promised
Do not do this, or do not believe, and you will be like Judas and the others who did not believe, and have no life in you.
