The Five-Fold Test for Eucharistic Theology

The podcast explores a five-fold test for understanding Eucharistic theology. The biblical teaching on the Eucharist is described as strange, sacrificial, serious, sacramental, and shocking. The speaker emphasizes the importance of these adjectives in describing one's view of the Eucharist. Drawing from a book called 'The Eucharist is Really Jesus,' the podcast delves deep into the biblical text, particularly John 6, to demonstrate the strangeness and depth of Jesus' Eucharistic teaching. The discourse examines the responses of the crowd and the disciples, revealing the shocking nature of the teaching and its impact on their beliefs and actions.
