Context of John 6:36
34So they said to him, ‘Sir, please give this bread to us now and always.’ 35Then Jesus said to them, ‘I am the bread that gives life to people. Anyone who comes to me will never be hungry. Anyone who believes in me will never be thirsty. You have seen me, but still you do not believe in me. I have told you that before. 37Everyone that the Father gives to me will come to me. When anyone comes to me, I will never send that person away. 38I have not come down from heaven to do what I myself choose to do. No, my Father has sent me. I have come to do what he wants me to do.
