John:6:45-71
Seeker Overlay ON
*
It is written in the prophets ,
And they shall be all taught of God .
Every man therefore that hath heard ,
and hath learned of the Father ,
cometh unto me .
*
Not that any man hath seen the Father ,
save he which is of God ,
he hath seen the Father .
*
Verily ,
verily ,
I say unto you ,
He that believeth on me hath everlasting life .
*
I am that bread of life .
*
Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness ,
and are dead .
*
This is the bread which cometh down from heaven ,
that a man may eat thereof ,
and not die .
*
I am the living bread which came down from heaven :
if any man eat of this bread ,
he shall live for ever :
and the bread that I will give is my flesh ,
which I will give for the life of the world .
*
The Jews therefore strove among themselves ,
saying ,
How can this man give us his flesh to eat ?
*
Then Jesus said unto them ,
Verily ,
verily ,
I say unto you ,
Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man ,
and drink his blood ,
ye have no life in you .
*
Whoso eateth my flesh ,
and drinketh my blood ,
hath eternal life ;
and I will raise him up at the last day .
*
For my flesh is meat indeed ,
and my blood is drink indeed .
*
He that eateth my flesh ,
and drinketh my blood ,
dwelleth in me ,
and I in him .
*
As the living Father hath sent me ,
and I live by the Father :
so he that eateth me ,
even he shall live by me .
*
This is that bread which came down from heaven :
not as your fathers did eat manna ,
and are dead :
he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever .
*
These things said he in the synagogue ,
as he taught in Capernaum .
*
Many therefore of his disciples ,
when they had heard this ,
said ,
This is an hard saying ;
who can hear it ?
*
When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it ,
he said unto them ,
Doth this offend you ?
*
What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before ?
*
It is the spirit that quickeneth ;
the flesh profiteth nothing :
the words that I speak unto you ,
they are spirit ,
and they are life .
*
But there are some of you that believe not .
For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not ,
and who should betray him .
*
And he said ,
Therefore said I unto you ,
that no man can come unto me ,
except it were given unto him of my Father .
*
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 .
*
Jesus answered them ,
Have not I chosen you twelve ,
and one of you is a devil ?
*
He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon :
for he it was that should betray him ,
being one of the twelve .
