Answer 4

There are two passages in the Gospel of John which refer to the Bread of Life:

John 6:35   And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

John 6:51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

This is an analogy.  Jesus is as necessary for eternal life as bread is to our human life.  We have this deep down hunger to be loved for who we are and not just what we do.  

We are attracted to Jesus for He loves us enough to die for us.  

"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only son, that whosoever believeth on Him should  not perish, but have everlasting life."  John 3:16
