The Gospel of Dangerous Lovers and Psycho Scientists

If you are going to be a Christian you have to come to terms with part of Jesus' story being downright shocking and almost embarrassing for his followers. Here's one example, which I am speaking on this weekend: John 6:53-59
       Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your forefathers ate manna and died, but he who feeds on this bread will live forever." He said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.


I have titled my message, "Sorry if this freaks you out." But I want to change it to "The gospel of dangerous lovers and psycho scientists." Inspired by a song we are doing and film clip we are watching during the service. People may be more confused after the serve than before. But that can be a good thing ... I hope!
