55Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. 56For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 57Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. 58Just as the living Father has sent me and I live because of the Father, so also whoever eats me, the same shall live because of me. 59This is the bread that descends from heaven.
