If I got a dime for every time verse 63 was used to nullify everything before it I'd be a rich man. Anyone who reads the context of Chapter 6 will realize what Jesus is referring to.

Yes, most Protestants fail to notice that throughout the text Christ talks about the life-giving properties of what He refers to as "My flesh", while in verse 63 He speaks about "the flesh," and in this one verse He shifts His emphasis from the life-giving Eucharist in order to condemn those who see the world only in a "fleshly manner." This same type of usage is found in St. Paul's epistles.

You know, I don't think I'd really noticed that shift before. Thanks, Apo!

okay i opened up a debate on sola scriptura so that this debate can remain sola transubstansiation.
