Why is Christ called the Bread of Life?

Answered in 1 source

Christ is called the Bread of Life because He provides spiritual nourishment and eternal satisfaction to those who believe in Him.

In John 6, Jesus explains that He is the true bread from heaven, which gives life to the world. When He fed the 5000, it served as a foreshadowing of His role as the one who sustains spiritually. Just as physical bread nourishes the body, Christ nourishes the soul, offering Himself as the source of eternal life. This metaphor emphasizes that true fulfillment and salvation come exclusively through faith in Him, as He laid down His life for His people.
