Eating the bread of life is recognising the facts, the reason for the works of Christ. He who eats his flesh and drinks his blood admits that he needs the divine examples of the Lord: It is admitting that Jesus lived, suffered, died crucified and was resurrected for us. The more we approach God the more we must be worthy. The way becomes demanding having less and less reasons for not being better, in any terms, grace is always present and we must acknowledge ourselves has sinners and be repentant. John 6, 28” They replied, “We want to perform God’s works, too. What should we do?”29 Jesus told them, “This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the one he has sent.”
John 6, 35 Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst. 36 But I said to you that you have seen me and yet do not believe. 37 All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out. 38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will but the will of him who sent me. 39 And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up on the last day. 40 For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who looks on the Son and believes in him should have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.”
Blessed is the Lord!
