The bread of heaven; the water of life
Jesus was asked many questions at this meeting. Some were from his disciples who were a bit confused, but most were from carping unbelievers who only wanted to entrap and embarrass him. One of the visiting Pharisees after climbing up on to a lamppost shouted out to Jesus, “You tell us that you are the bread of life. How can you give us your flesh to eat or your blood to drink? What good is your teaching if it cannot be carried out?”
Jesus said “I did not teach you that my flesh is the bread of life or that my blood is the water of life. But I did say that my life in the flesh is a bestowal of the bread of heaven. The fact of the word of God given to you in the flesh and the phenomena of the Son of Man subject to the will of God is an experience equal to divine food. You cannot eat my flesh and you cannot drink my blood, but you can become one in spirit with me even as I am one in spirit with the Father. You can be nourished by the eternal word of God, which is indeed the bread of life and that has been bestowed in the likeness of mortal flesh, and you can be watered in soul by the divine spirit, which is truly the water of life. The Father has sent me into this world to show how he desires to direct and indwell all people; I have lived this life in the flesh in the same way to inspire people to forever seek to know and do the will of the indwelling heavenly Father.”
