John 6:53 in Context — John 6

51 Yo soy el pan vivo que he descendido del cielo: si alguno comiere de este pan, vivirá para siempre; y el pan que yo daré es mi carne, la cual yo daré por la vida del mundo.

52 Entonces los Judíos contendían entre sí, diciendo: ¿Cómo puede éste darnos su carne á comer?

53 Y Jesús les dijo: De cierto, de cierto os digo: Si no comiereis la carne del Hijo del hombre, y bebiereis su sangre, no tendréis vida en vosotros.

54 El que come mi carne y bebe mi sangre, tiene vida eterna: y yo le resucitaré en el día postrero.

55 Porque mi carne es verdadera comida, y mi sangre es verdadera bebida.
