John 6:60-71 - Many Disciples Desert Jesus
60 When many of his disciples heard this, they said, "This is a difficult statement. Who can accept it?"
61 But Jesus, knowing within himself that his disciples were grumbling about this, asked them, "Does this offend you? 62 What if you saw the Son of Man going up to the place where he was before? 63 It's the Spirit who gives life; the flesh accomplishes nothing. The words that I've spoken to you are spirit and life. 64 But there are some among you who don't believe..." - because Jesus knew from the beginning those who weren't believing, as well as the one who would betray him. 65 So he said, "That's why I told you that no one can come to me unless it be granted him by the Father."
66 As a result, many of his disciples turned back and no longer associated with him. 67 So Jesus asked the Twelve, "You don't want to leave, too, do you?"
68 Simon Peter answered him, "Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life. 69 Besides, we have believed and remain convinced that you are the Holy One of God."
70 Jesus answered them, "I chose you, the Twelve, didn't I? Yet one of you is a devil." 71 Now he was speaking about Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, because this man was going to betray him, even though he was one of the Twelve.
