Let us continue with selections from “Jesus, The True Bread And The Living Vine,” followed by “Only Jesus Has Sayings Of Everlasting Life” from the Essene Humane Gospel of Christ. “[…] And it was later, as Jesus sat at supper with His disciples, that one of them said unto Him: ‘Holy Lord. I know what Thou say, that Thou will give Thy flesh to eat and Thy blood to drink, but for many it is a difficult saying. Tell us therefore, Lord, more of this saying that all of us may understand.’ And Jesus, looking upon them and knowing their humble and contrite spirit, said unto them: ‘The words which I spoke unto you before, are Spirit and they are Life. But to the ignorant and carnally minded, they savor of bloodshed and death. But I say unto you, blessed are they who do understand the truthful meaning. […]For thine own eyes bear witness of me, that the Son of Man partakes only of the fruits of the trees and the seeds of the herbs, as His food, and these are changed by the Spirit into my flesh and my blood. And of these alone and their like shall ye eat also, for whoso believe in me are my true disciples, for of these simple foods, in the Spirit, come life and health and every kind of healing unto man. […] For again I verily say unto you, in the beginning, all creatures of God did find their sustenance in the herbs and the fruits of the Earth alone, but the evil one turned many from the use which God had given them, to that which was contrary to their original use. For the eating of flesh and blood of both animals and man, satan […] did introduce unto man and creatures alike. For I say unto you, not only did satan incite man to eat man and animal alike, but also incited the very creatures to devour one another. But even the creatures shall yet return to their natural food, as it is written in the Prophets, and most truly their words shall not fail. So be ye not like the ignorant without God’s law, for they imagine that only blood will wash them clean of sins, even as they eat the flesh of their innocent victims. But such ones are from their father, satan, and desire not the truth of my commandments. Know ye, now, what I say unto thee, keep my commandments and be ye humane and live the righteous life, and happy and healthy shall ye be in this life, and in that which is to come. Marvel not therefore, that I said unto you, except ye eat the flesh and drink the blood of God, ye have no life in you. For it is said, “the meek and the humble shall inherit the Earth,” yea, even all they who seek the humane life among the creatures of God ... for I am the Holy Law come down from Heaven that whosoever eats of my table and obey, the same eats of my body, the bread of life; and whosoever drinks of my blood, the rivers and streams of purifying waters, shall not know death at all. For I am the Law and the Life and the Way. Imparting eternal life unto the righteous sons of man.’ […]”
