RCC Catechism Teaches that Man can become God

[tealblue]

Yes it is true that I have been shown the meaning of the bread of life discourse. And I think thats true for everybody also when reading the bible. That in it self doesn't make it true or false. You had made the statement that verse 29 says that belief in him is the bread of life. In verse 29 it only says that" it is the work of God to belive in him." How do you come up with that verse to mean believing is the bread of life when Verse 52 is clear what the bread of life is. His flesh.

52 If any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever; and the bread that I will give, IS MY FLESH, for the life of the world.

We both pretty much agree that the people were looking for food to fill their stomachs. And I think we pretty much agree that the bread of life is Jesus. BUT I think the real difference we have in this whole discourse is "What does jesus mean when he says EAT" I already agreed that the bread is a metaphore. I shown clear p***age in verse 52 that the bread is a metaphore for his flesh.

How do you know from this chapter that when Jesus says eat my flesh, drink my blood that it is not literal. The jews were very clear that they thought he was being literal. And Jesus was very clear to repeat himself over and over again. Even changing the word eat in verse 57 to trogon which means to chew or knaw. These words eat my flesh and drink my blood are the same language used in the last supper where Jesus broke bread and raised up the cup and says this is my body and blood.

Yes jesus often spoke in parrables. Jesus didn't always speak in parables. And the crowd didn't always misunderstand what he was saying for instance when he says the word I AM. They all knew exactly what he was saying.
