What does John 6:54 mean?
Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood
Spiritually by faith, as explained in the preceding verse:
hath eternal life;
the principle of spiritual life, which is evidently implanted in
him, as appears from his eating and drinking; and is a durable
and lasting principle: grace is an incorruptible seed; every part
of it is abiding and permanent; and it is itself the beginning,
pledge, and earnest of everlasting life, and is inseparably
connected with it: moreover, such have eternal life itself, not
only in Christ their head, but in themselves: they have a right
unto it, and a meetness for it: and may be assured of it, as if
they were personally possessed of it, from their election to it;
the security of it in Christ; from the grace they have received,
which is the beginning of glory; and the earnest of it in
themselves:
and I will raise him up at the last day;
to enjoy it in soul and body; (See Gill on John
6:39), (See Gill on John
6:40).
