John 6:43-52

⁴³“Stop grumbling to each other,” Jesus said.

⁴⁴“No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me attracts them, and I will raise them up at the last day.

⁴⁵As is written in Scripture by the prophets, ‘Everyone will be taught by God.’ Everyone who listens to and learns from the Father comes to me.

⁴⁶Not that anyone has seen God, except he who is from God; he has seen the Father.

⁴⁷I tell you the truth: anyone who trusts in him has eternal life.

⁴⁸I am the bread of life.

⁴⁹Your forefathers ate manna in the desert but they still died.

⁵⁰But this is the bread that comes down from heaven, and anyone who eats it won't ever die.

⁵¹I am the life-giving bread from heaven, and anyone who eats this bread will live forever. The bread is my flesh that I give so that the world may live.”

⁵²Then the Jews argued heatedly among themselves. “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?” they asked.
