Responding to Catholics on John 6: "Eat my Flesh"

Soteriology 101 w/ Dr. Leighton Flowers

CHAPTER

Metaphors of Nourishment in John 6

This chapter examines the interpretation of Jesus' statements about 'eating flesh' and 'drinking blood' in John 6, arguing against a literal understanding and favoring a metaphorical interpretation. It highlights the importance of context and faith, linking the act of consuming bread and wine to the internalization of spiritual truths and the covenant relationship with God. The discussion contrasts Catholic beliefs concerning transubstantiation with a focus on the transformative power of Jesus’ teachings over physical elements used in communion.
