John 6:55 Context
53Then Iesus sayd vnto them, Uerely, verely I say vnto you, Except yee eate the flesh of the sonne of man, and drinke his blood, yee haue no life in you. 54Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternall life, and I will raise him vp at the last day. 55For my flesh is meate indeed, and my blood is drinke indeed. 56He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. 57As the liuing Father hath sent me, and I liue by the Father: so, he that eateth me, euen he shall liue by me.
