—John 6:52-59
by: Paul Andries.
This is a hard saying-but spiritually, this is hell stopping! Jesus let us know from the start that to follow Him means being radical. Following Jesus requires doing what he demands, whether we like it or not. Some things that are good for us may not look or taste good. We try to make the message palatable and end up diluting the potency of God's good news. The Scripture calls that compromise. Jesus said, "Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you" (v. 53, KJV). We can thank God that Jesus isn't cannibalistic and did imply it!
