John 6:27

Discourse About The Bread Of Life

²⁶ Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, you people are looking for me because you got to eat the loaves of bread and were satisfied and not because you saw [miraculous] signs. [See verse 14]. ²⁷ Do not work for the [kind of] food that spoils, but for the kind that lasts until never ending life. The Son of man will give you this [kind of food], for God the Father has placed His seal [of approval] on Him." ²⁸ Then the people said to Jesus, "What must we do in order to perform the deeds that God requires?"
