John 6:49 - Forerunner Commentary

John 6:49

47 Most assuredly, I say to you, ^ahe who believes in Me has everlasting life.

48 ^aI am the bread of life.

49 ^aYour fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

50 ^aThis is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die.

51 I am the living bread ^awhich came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and ^bthe bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”

52 The Jews therefore ^aquarreled among themselves, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?”

John 6:49-51

That is how important Passover is!

In Exodus 12, if those people had not followed the instructions - I want you to note this. They had to eat the Passover. The emphasis here is on eating. We may go so far as to say that the eating of the Passover might be the most important part of all. Anybody can begin by believing in the Word of God - believing in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Eating and drinking implies a lifelong process! That shows whether the person really is a Christian.

God's command is very clear. In order to keep the Passover, one must eat of it. And it had to be eaten on the night of the fourteenth. Again, remember John 6, unless you eat of His flesh. . . you have no life in you.
