Remember? In the beginning was the Word.The mystery is that the metaphor is not obvious; if God and Jesus are one, and if God is All, then anything eaten is part of Jesus, and remembering that would serve to keep a believer conscious of his/her personal union with 'All'.
The words that Jesus received from God like manna from heaven and became his flesh, his teaching about how to correctly understand and comply with divine law, can only be devoured by the ear and digested by understanding.
The only thing that can possibly be in God and from God and in Jesus, with Jesus, and came into the world through Jesus - in all and shared by all and one with all - is this one teaching.
Life is the promise for complying with divine law. Unless you eat his flesh, you can have no life in you.
