CHRIST THE BREAD OF LIFE

Corpus Christi

Jesus said to the Jews:

At Lamb's High Feast

'I am the living bread which has come down from heaven. Anyone who eats this bread will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is my flesh, for the life of the world.'

Then the Jews started arguing with one another: 'How can this man give us his flesh to eat?' they said.

Jesus replied:
I tell you most solemnly, if you do not eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood,
you will not have life in you. Anyone who does
eat my flesh and drink my blood has eternal life, and I shall raise him
up on the last day. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives
in me and I live in him.  Mass Readings   Images of Corpus Christi
