JOHN 6:25-40

²⁵And when they found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?

²⁶Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye ate of the loaves, and were filled.

²⁷Work not for the meat which perisheth, but for the meat which abideth unto eternal life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him the Father, even God, hath sealed.

²⁸They said therefore unto him, What must we do, that we may work the works of God?

²⁹Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

³⁰They said therefore unto him, What then doest thou for a sign, that we may see, and believe thee? what workest thou?

³¹Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.

³²Jesus therefore said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, It was not Moses that gave you the bread out of heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread out of heaven.

³³For the bread of God is that which cometh down out of heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

³⁴They said therefore unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

³⁵Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

³⁶But I said unto you, that ye have seen me, and yet believe not.

³⁷All that which the Father giveth me shall come unto me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

³⁸For I am come down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.

³⁹And this is the will of him that sent me, that of all that which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day.

⁴⁰For this is the will of my Father, that every one that beholdeth the Son, and believeth on him, should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
