For it is on him that God the Father has set his seal. |

Whoever eats of this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh. |
| Anyone who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. | Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood abide in me, and I in them. |
| I live because of the living Father who sent me; in the same way, anyone who feeds on me will live because of me. | Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever eats me will live because of me. |
