From the Holy Gospel according to John
John 6:56-59
At that time, Jesus said unto the multitudes of the Jews: My Flesh is meat indeed and My Blood is drink indeed. And so on.
Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo.
27th Tract on John.
I have said, my brethren, that what the Lord hath set before us, in eating of His Flesh and drinking of His Blood, is that we should dwell in Him, and He in us. We dwell in Him when we are His members, and He dwelleth in us when we are His temple. But the bond whereby we are made His members is oneness and what is the cause of oneness but love And love of God, whence is it? Ask the Apostle. “The love of God,” saith he, “is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost, Which is given unto us.” Rom. v. 5.
