I Am the Bread

[Citizen of the Kingdom]

Immediately following the feeding of the 5000 Jesus spoke of Himself as being the True Bread of Life . After that discourse many of His followers followed Him no further than that. What was introduced into the Gospels at that time was the turning from materialism to the Words of eternal Life, as the 12 attested to.
From carnality to spirituality; from those who followed Him for personal gain to those who yearned for substanance that endured. That lasting quality was in the water that Jesus spoke of at the Samatitan well.
He's the Lamb that was slain who ressurected into the Heavenlies, therefore our Passover is into the ressurected life, which isn't of the earthly plain ( since our bodies are still not in ressurection but remain in the material realm)
　
He is the Heavenly Manna.

"Ye seek Me not because you have seen the signs, but because you ate of the bread and are filled" Jn 6:26
　
What bread is to the body Jesus is to the soul.
　
"..to him who overcomes I will give to eat of the Tree of Life. ... I will give of the Hidden Manna" Revelation 2:7,17

In the Holy Ghost of Jesus, we find eternity, salvation: we know this by the words and deeds through which are recorded of Him.
