John 6:63

Many Disciples Desert Jesus

⁶² What then will you say if you see the Son of man going up to where he was before? ⁶³ The spirit is the life giver; the flesh is of no value: the words which I have said to you are spirit and they are life. ⁶⁴ But still some of you have no faith. For it was clear to Jesus from the first who they were who had no faith, and who it was who would be false to him.
