One must eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of man in order to have eternal life, John 6:53. Merely knowing the qualities of His flesh and blood is not sufficient. This issue cannot be regarded as one of mere speculative interest. It is a matter of serious consequence. This is no time to be addressing men as disputants in philosophy. As noted earlier, this subject does not allow room for discussion. Ministers of the gospel are called to press the plain teaching of the gospel upon men's consideration; and the plain teaching of the Word of God is that we must believe IN HIM or we shall die in our sins.
