6:37 Everyone the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will never drive away.

6:38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but to do the will of Him who sent Me.

6:39 And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of those He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day.

6:40 For it is My Father’s will that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.”

6:41 At this, the Jews began to grumble about Jesus because He had said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.”

6:42 They were asking, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then can He say, ‘I have come down from heaven’?”

6:43 “Stop grumbling among yourselves,” Jesus replied.

6:44 “No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day.

6:45 It is written in the Prophets: ‘And they will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from Him comes to Me—

6:46 not that anyone has seen the Father except the One who is from God; only He has seen the Father.

6:47 Truly, truly, I tell you, he who believes has eternal life.

6:48 I am the bread of life.

6:49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died.

6:50 This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that anyone may eat of it and not die.

6:51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And this bread, which I will give for the life of the world, is My flesh.”

6:52 At this, the Jews began to argue among themselves, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?”

6:53 So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you.

6:54 Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

6:55 For My flesh is real food, and My blood is real drink.

6:56 Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him.

6:57 Just as the living Father sent Me and I live because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on Me will live because of Me.

6:58 This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your fathers, who ate the manna and died, the one who eats this bread will live forever.”

6:59 Jesus said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.

6:60 On hearing it, many of His disciples said, “This is a difficult teaching. Who can accept it?”

6:61 Aware that His disciples were grumbling about this teaching, Jesus asked them, “Does this offend you?

6:62 Then what will happen if you see the Son of Man ascend to where He was before?

6:63 The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.

6:64 However, there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray Him.)

6:65 Then Jesus said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to Me unless the Father has granted it to him.”

6:66 From that time on many of His disciples turned back and no longer walked with Him.

6:67 So Jesus asked the Twelve, “Do you want to leave too?”

6:68 Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life.

6:69 We believe and know that You are the Holy One of God.”

6:70 Jesus answered them, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!”

6:71 He was speaking about Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. For although Judas was one of the Twelve, he was later to betray Jesus.
