主耶稣乃是神成为肉体，成了神的羔羊，取了人的血肉之体，好为我们的罪流出血来，为着救赎我们。然后祂在复活里又成了赐生命的灵，进到我们里面，使我们有分于祂。这位进到我们里面的耶稣，就是生命的饼，既是麦饼，又是肉饼，为要喂养、供应我们。今天我们所需要的，就是得帮助实际的吃祂、喝祂、享受祂。
因着主的话深奥难懂，所以犹太人听到后来就糊涂了，以致彼此争论说，‘这个人怎能把他的肉给我们吃？’（52）门徒也为这话唧咕议论说，‘这话什难，谁能听呢？’主耶稣就对他们说，‘赐人生命的乃是灵，肉是无益的。’（63上）这给我们看见，先是饼，后是肉和血；然而肉又是无益的，因为赐人生命的乃是灵。主的话意思乃是指明，祂不仅是饼、是肉饼，并且祂更是灵。主耶稣是真正逾越节被杀的羔羊，流出祂的血。但是我们不能吃祂的肉；祂乃是成了赐生命的灵，给我们享受。所以祂才说，赐人生命的乃是灵，肉是无益的。
要明白约翰六章的启示，我们必须把这些钥字摆在一起看。主耶稣就是那麦饼，生命的饼；这饼又是肉饼，是成功救赎的。至终祂在复活里又成了灵，就叫我们得生命。不过说到灵又太渺茫，无从捉摸。所以主接着又说，‘我对你们所说的话，就是灵，就是生命。’（63下）这指明今天祂这灵又成了话。主耶稣是饼，也是灵，结果就是话；但祂的话一接受到你里面，就是灵；灵就成了生命；这生命成了你的供应，结果就成了你的成分。因此，你接受祂的话，就等于吃祂。

The Lord’s Words Are Spirit and Life – John 6:63
The Lord Jesus is God who became flesh. He became the Lamb of God, taking on a body of flesh and blood so that He could shed His blood for our sins and redeem us. Then, in resurrection, He became the life-giving Spirit to enter into us so that we may partake of Him. This Jesus who has come into us is the bread of life — both as the wheat bread and the meat bread — to nourish and supply us. What we need today is to be helped to actually eat Him, drink Him and enjoy Him.
Because the Lord’s words were profound and difficult, the Jews became confused when they heard them and began to argue, saying, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?” (John 6:52). Even the disciples murmured, saying, “This is a difficult statement: who can listen to it?” (John 6:60). The Lord Jesus then said to them, “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing” (John 6:63a). This shows us that first He is bread, then flesh and blood; yet the flesh profits nothing, because it is the Spirit who gives life. The Lord’s meaning is to indicate that He is not only bread — the bread of life, the meat-bread for redemption — but that He has also become Spirit. The Lord Jesus is the true Passover Lamb who was slain and shed His blood. Yet we cannot literally eat His flesh; rather, He became the life-giving Spirit for us to enjoy. That is why He said, “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing.”
To understand the revelation in John chapter 6, we must put these key words together. The Lord Jesus is the wheat bread, the bread of life; this bread is also the meat bread, which accomplished redemption. Ultimately, in resurrection, He became the Spirit so that we may have life. However, speaking of the Spirit may still seem too abstract and intangible. Therefore, the Lord added, “The words which I have spoken to you are spirit and are life” (John 6:63b). This indicates that today, He as the Spirit has also become the Word. The Lord Jesus is bread, and He is Spirit, and the issue is that He has become the Word. But once His Word is received into you, it becomes Spirit; the Spirit becomes life; and this life becomes your supply, eventually becoming your very constituent. Therefore, to receive His Word is the same as eating Him.
