[15] This Is My Body - This Is My Blood

Our Blessed Lord Said this:

(Mat 26:26) And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, "Take, eat; this is My body."

(Mat 26:27-28) Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you. {28} "For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

(Mark 14:22) And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them and said, "Take, eat; this is My body."

(Mark 14:23) Then He took the cup, and when He had given thanks He gave it to them, and they all drank from it.

(Luke 22:19) And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me."

(Luke 22:20) Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you.

“My Body” in the context of communion was mentioned five times in John Chapter 6. “My Blood” in the context of communion was mentioned 4 times in John Chapter 6. Please refer to John 6 verses 51,53,54,55,56.
