The document discusses Jesus' words about eating his body and drinking his blood during the Last Supper and the reactions they elicited. It notes that Jesus used metaphoric language to teach spiritual lessons and that there were different types of followers seeking him for various reasons, like signs, prosperity or politics. Some disciples rejected Jesus' difficult teachings and walked away, showing how followers can fall into apostasy. The document contrasts invented religions focused on ceremonies and works with the Bible's teaching of salvation by God's grace alone.

1. THE LORD’S SUPPER TRADITION OR TRUCE?

8. … dwelleth in me, and I in him . As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me. This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever. These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum. Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it? It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
