John 6:59-65 - Many Of Jesus' Disciples Offended By His Teaching

59 This he said as he taught in the synagogue at Capharnahum.

60 Now many of his disciples, on hearing it, said, "This is hard to take in! Who can listen to talk like this?"

61 Jesus, inwardly conscious that his disciples were murmuring at it, said to them, "So this upsets you? 62 Then what if you were to see the Son of man ascending to where he formerly existed? 63 What gives life is the Spirit: flesh is of no avail at all. The words I have uttered to you are spirit and life. 64 And yet there are some of you who do not believe" (for Jesus knew from the very first who the unbelieving were, and who was to betray him; 65 that was why he said 'I tell you that no one is able to come to me unless he is allowed by the Father').
