Jesus said, "eat my flesh and drink my blood." Wait, He said what?? The state of the human soul is hungry; it is a hunger that comes from sin and ultimately separation from God. Our souls were made to be satisfied with God. This hard to read statement is a metaphorical analogy to the importance of Jesus being our "true bread" and source of fulfillment.
Taking phrases and verses out of context always leads to misunderstanding.

4 principles the help us understand proper context;

1. Literal meaning
2. Historical setting
3. Grammar
4. The synthesis
Our soul craving is not for something, but for SOMEONE. And until we’ve been re-united to that SOMEONE, our souls will always be famished, corrupted and always searching.
Our mission is not just "random acts of kindness" it's also "bold acts of proclamation."
