ABSTRACT: One of the passages mostly commonly appealed to by proponents of the Real Presence understanding of the Eucharist is John 6:53-58. There Jesus says that one must "eat his flesh" and "drink his blood" in order to have life. In this video, I argue that the Real Presence understanding of the Eucharist actually cannot make sense of this text. The Memorialist alternative is better and more contextually supported.
