John 6:41-58

411So then the Jews were complaining about Him because He said, “I am the bread that 2came down out of heaven.” 42And they were saying, “3Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother 4we know? How does He now say, ‘5I have come down out of heaven’?” 43Jesus answered and said to them, “Stop complaining among yourselves. 44No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me 6draws him; and I will 7raise him up on the last day. 45It is written 8in the Prophets: ‘9And they shall all be 10taught of God.’ Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father, comes to Me. 4611Not that anyone has seen the Father, except the One who is from God; He has seen the Father. 47Truly, truly, I say to you, the one who believes 12has eternal life. 4813I am the bread of life. 4914Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50This is the bread that 15comes down out of heaven, so that anyone may eat from it and 16not die. 5117I am the living bread that 18came down out of heaven; if anyone eats from this bread, 19he will live forever; and the bread which I will give 20for the life of the world also is 21My flesh.”

5222Then the Jews 23began to argue with one another, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?” 53So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of 24the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves. 54The one who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will 25raise him up on the last day. 55For My flesh is true food, and My blood is true drink. 56The one who eats My flesh and drinks My blood 26remains in Me, and I in him. 57Just as the 27living Father 28sent Me, and I live because of the Father, the one who eats Me, he also will live because of Me. 58This is the bread that 29came down out of heaven, not as 30the fathers ate and died; the one who eats this bread 31will live forever.”
