John 6:46 - 6:71

Gospel of John
Gospel of JohnSteve Gregg

In this talk, Steve Gregg explores the controversial meaning behind John 6:46-71 where Jesus speaks about eating his flesh and drinking his blood. Gregg notes that this concept is often misunderstood and that it actually represents a metaphor for consuming the word of God in order to have eternal life. The talk also touches on the importance of commitment to following God and that true Christian fellowship involves believers committing themselves to God and repenting when they fall into weakness or foolishness.
