The Flesh and Blood of Jesus -- Mysterious and Offensive, Yet Redemptive  

The idea of Jesus’ blood has been mysterious and offensive for quite a while, yet redemptive: 

"So Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you cannot have eternal life within you. But anyone who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise that person at the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Anyone who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. I live because of the living Father who sent me; in the same way, anyone who feeds on me will live because of me. Many of his disciples said, "This is very hard to understand. How can anyone accept it?" Jesus was aware that his disciples were complaining, so he said to them, "Does this offend you? At this point many of his disciples turned away and deserted him." John‬ ‭6‬:‭53‬-‭57‬, ‭60‬-‭61‬, ‭66‬ ‭NLT‬‬

"Fully Surremdered to God’s Agenda!"
