#264: John 6-8 | Eat my flesh and drink my blood
Manage episode 429864499 series 3423470
In chapter 6, Jesus tells his disciples that they must eat his flesh and drink his blood or they won't have any life in them. That was just too much for many of them. So many his disciples left him.
In the next chapter we learn that Jesus's brothers didn't believe in him and the people accuse Jesus of having a devil. Jesus says that living waters will flow out of his followers bellies.
Chapter 8 has the best story in the gospel of John - the woman accused of adultery. Jesus says that whoever is without sin should throw the first stone.
Now that's a nice story! But it wasn't in the gospel of John. It was a later addition.
