John 6:48-58

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on John 6:48-58

48I am the bread of life.
49Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died.
50This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that anyone may eat of it and not die.
51I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And this bread, which I will give for the life of the world, is My flesh.”
52At this, the Jews began to argue among themselves, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?”
53So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you.
54Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
55For My flesh is real food, and My blood is real drink.
56Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him.
57Just as the living Father sent Me and I live because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on Me will live because of Me.
58This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your fathers, who ate the manna and died, the one who eats this bread will live forever.”
