Jesus’ words are simple with eternal implications. The mystery of His real presence points us back to Christ’s cross and the benefits of we receive today in the body and blood. Instead of looking within ourselves to find comfort, we cling to the plain words of Christ to receive what He promises: forgiveness of sins, life, and salvation (Matthew 26:28). “What is this bread? Christ’s body risen from the dead; This bread we break, This life we take, was crushed to pay for our release. O taste and see—the Lord is peace.” LSB #629, st. 1
