John 6:24-40 & 66-69
(KJV)
When
the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they
also took shipping, and came to Capernaum , seeking for Jesus.
And
when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him,
Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
Jesus
answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because
ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
Labour
not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto
everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God
the Father sealed.
Then
said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
Jesus
answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on
him whom he hath sent.
They
said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and
believe thee? what dost thou work?
Our
fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from
heaven to eat.
Then
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that
bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
For
the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the
world.
Then
said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
And
Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never
hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
But
I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
All
that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in
no wise cast out.
For
I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of Him that sent me.
And
this is the Father's will which hath
sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should
raise it up again at the last day.
And
this is the will of Him that sent
me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have
everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
From that time many of his disciples went back, and
walked no more with him. Then said Jesus unto the
twelve, Will ye also go away? Then
Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of
eternal life.
And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the
living God.
