John 6:54 ‘Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.’

DAILY READING – – Revelation 1; Nehemiah 1-2; Psalm 96

For many centuries men have been in a great quest for the fountain of eternal youth. From ancient times many methods have been practiced to reverse aging and stop the death process. Some of these ancient methods included the transfusion of blood or drinking of its components. Some centuries ago scientists began to explore the possibility of using the blood of young people to rejuvenate the old and aging. In the mid-19th century, a scientist named Paul Bert began experimenting with a process called parabiosis. In this process, young and old animals were surgically connected to share the same blood circulatory system. From this experiment, it was found that the blood of the young animals could rejuvenate the old. Paul Bert was awarded the Prize of Experimental Physiology in 1866 for his discoveries. Recently scientists began to take Bert’s experiment a step further by applying it to humans. The result is what they now believe to be a potential biological Fountain of Youth and anti-aging panacea. According to the claim of these scientists, taking a young person’s blood and infusing it into an older person could ward off aging. The therapy of parabiosis has greatly fascinated many rich and famous people who have been investing heavily in the research, hoping it will provide a way for them to live forever young on earth.
A company named ‘Ambrosia’ now charges $8,000 per patient for its human clinical trial of parabiosis. However, in January 2019, the U.S food and drug administration [FDA] sent strong warnings to the public to be wary of companies like ‘Ambrosia’, saying there is yet no proven clinical benefit of parabiosis to cure or prevent aging conditions. The stance of the U.S government doesn’t seem to have deterred the many people now on the waiting list of ‘Ambrosia’. Each of them is to be transfused with 1.5 liters of blood from young donors aged between 16 and 25 years. ‘Ambrosia’, based in San Francisco has been so successful that it now has additional locations in Los Angeles; Omaha, Nebraska; Houston, Texas; and Tampa, Florida.
It is amusing and amazing that men are so desperately in search of a man-made eternal life. But eternal life, cannot be purchased through money or infusion of young blood. The truth is that there is only one, whose blood has the guarantee of eternal life. That is Christ Jesus.  Eternal life can only come through our divine connection with Christ, which transfuses His divine life and blood into us.

In John 6:54, Jesus says ‘Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.’
While the world run after the elusive fountain of youth, we already have the promise of renewal and rejuvenation through the eternal life that is in Christ Jesus. The Blood of Jesus has already made the provision for eternal strength and vigor for us through the Holy Communion.  The holy communion is more than a Church rite or Christian ritual, it is a covenant mystery that God has given to us for daily renewal and rejuvenation

The Communion is a mystery of life transplant. While Jesus walked on earth, He was vibrant, and His body was full of life and health; Jesus was never sick. However, at the cross there was a divine exchange, He took all our sicknesses and infirmities, while we received His eternal life. When we partake of the Blood of Jesus, there is a spiritual blood transfusion that ejects our defiled blood in exchange for His undefiled and incorruptible Blood. As we partake of the communion, our bodies are serviced and infused with new life and strength, as the virtues of Christ flow into us.
The Power of the Holy Communion neutralizes body poisons and diseases. As you take it daily, it will make you younger, stronger and cause you to live longer. Through the blood covenant, we will never have any need to seek after an elusive fountain of  youth, because already eternal strength, vigor and eternal life are ours through the power that is in Christ’s blood.

PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for the supernatural grace made available to me through the blood of Jesus. By the power in the blood, I shall live life fully, fruitfully and fulfill Your destiny for me in Jesus Name.
