"Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man
and drink his blood, you do not have life within you. Whoever eats my flesh
and drink my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. For
my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks
my blood remains in me and I in him." ... Then many of his disciples who were listening
said, "This saying is hard; who can accept it?" Since Jesus knew that his
disciples were murmuring about this, he said to them, "Does this shock you? What
if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before? It is the spirit
that gives life, while the flesh is of no avail. The words I have spoken to you are
spirit and life. But there are some of you who do not believe."
