"I am the bread of life" is a statement made by Jesus in the Gospel of John, symbolizing that He is essential for spiritual sustenance and eternal life. This phrase relates to the Lord's Supper, or Communion, where bread represents Jesus' body, sacrificed for humanity. In this sacrament, believers partake in the bread to remember Christ's sacrifice and to acknowledge their dependence on Him for spiritual nourishment. Thus, both concepts emphasize the importance of Jesus as the source of life and salvation.
