Are you not saying, 'In four months more the harvest comes'? Look! I tell you, lift up your eyes and scan the fields, for they are already white for harvesting.

Next day the people who had stayed on the other side of the sea saw that there was only one boat there, and that Jesus had not gotten into it with His disciples, but that His disciples had gone away by themselves. Other boats from Tiberias had landed near the place where the people ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks. So when the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they got into boats themselves and went to Capernaum to look for Jesus. read more.
So when they had crossed the sea and found Him, they asked Him, "Teacher, when did you get here?" Jesus answered them, "I most solemnly say to you, you are looking for me, not because of the wonder-works you saw, but because you ate the loaves and had plenty. Stop toiling for the food that perishes, but toil for the food that lasts for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you, for God the Father has given Him authority to do so." Then they asked Him, "What must we do to perform the works that God demands?" Jesus answered them, "The work that God demands of you is this, to believe in the messenger whom He has sent." So they asked Him, "What wonder-work then are you going to perform for us to see and so believe in you? What work are you going to do? Our forefathers in the desert ate the manna, as the Scripture says, 'He gave them out of heaven bread to eat.'" Then Jesus said to them, "I most solemnly say to you, it was not Moses who gave you the real bread out of heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the real bread out of heaven, for the bread that God gives is what comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world." Then they said to Him, "Give us that bread always, sir!" Jesus said to them, "I am the bread that gives life. Whoever comes to me will never get hungry, and whoever believes in me will never get thirsty. But I have told you that, although you have seen me, yet you do not believe in me. All that my Father gives to me will come to me, and I will never, no, never reject anyone who comes to me, because I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will but the will of Him who sent me. Now the will of Him who sent me is this, that I should lose none of all that He has given me, but should raise them to life on the last day. For it is my Father's will that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and that I shall raise him to life on the last day." Then the Jews began to grumble about His saying, "I am the bread that came down out of heaven." And they said, "Is He not Jesus, Joseph's son, whose father and mother we know? So how can He say, 'I have come down out of heaven'?" Jesus answered them, "Stop grumbling to one another. No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him to me; then I myself will raise him to life on the last day. In the prophets it is written, 'And all men will be taught by God.' Everyone who ever listens to the Father and learns from Him will come to me. Not that anyone has ever seen the Father, except Him who is from God; of course, He has seen the Father. I most solemnly say to you, whoever believes in me possesses eternal life. I am the bread that gives life. Your forefathers in the desert ate the manna, and yet they died. But here is the bread that comes down out of heaven, so that anyone may eat it and never die. I am this living bread that has come down out of heaven. If anyone eats this bread, he will live forever, and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my own flesh." But the Jews kept on wrangling with one another and saying, "How can He give us His flesh to eat?" Then Jesus said to them, "I most solemnly say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you do not have life in you. Whoever continues to eat my flesh and drink my blood already possesses eternal life, and I will raise him to life on the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. Whoever continues to eat my flesh and drink my blood continues to live in union with me and I in union with him. Just as the living Father has sent me and I live because of the Father, so whoever keeps on eating me will live because of me. This is the bread that comes down out of heaven; not as your forefathers ate the manna, and yet died. Whoever continues to eat this bread will live forever." He said this as He taught in the synagogue at Capernaum. So many of His disciples, when they heard it, said, "This teaching is hard to take in. Who can listen to it?" But as Jesus naturally knew that His disciples were grumbling about this, He said to them, "Is this shocking to you? Suppose you were to see the Son of Man going back where He was before? The Spirit is what gives life; the flesh does not help at all. The truths that I have told you are spirit and life. But there are some of you who do not trust in me." For Jesus knew from the start who they were that did not trust in Him, and who it was that was going to betray Him. So He continued, "This is why I told you that no one can come to me, unless it is granted to him by my Father."

Jesus said to them, "I am the bread that gives life. Whoever comes to me will never get hungry, and whoever believes in me will never get thirsty. But I have told you that, although you have seen me, yet you do not believe in me. All that my Father gives to me will come to me, and I will never, no, never reject anyone who comes to me, read more.

"I most solemnly say to you, whoever listens to me and believes Him who has sent me possesses eternal life, and will never come under condemnation, but has already passed out of death into life. I most solemnly say to you, a time is coming -- indeed, it is already here -- when the dead will listen to the voice of the Son of God, and those who listen to it will live.

Jesus answered him, "I most solemnly say to you, no one can ever see the kingdom of God, unless he is born from above." Nicodemus said to Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot again enter his mother's womb and be born, can he?" Jesus answered, "I most solemnly say to you, no one can ever get into the kingdom of God, unless he is born of water and the Spirit. read more.
Whatever is born of the physical is physical, and whatever is born of the Spirit is spiritual. Never wonder at my telling you that you must all be born from above. The wind blows where it pleases, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. That is just the way it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit." Then Nicodemus answered by asking, "How can this be?" Jesus answered him, "Are you a teacher of Israel and do not know this? I most solemnly say to you, we know what we are talking about and we have seen what we are testifying to, yet you are all rejecting our testimony. If you do not believe the earthly things I tell you, how can you believe the heavenly things, if I tell you about them? And yet no one has gone up into heaven except the Son of Man who came down out of heaven. And just as Moses in the desert lifted the serpent on the pole, the Son of Man must be lifted up, so that everyone who trusts in Him may have eternal life. "For God loved the world so much that He gave His Only Son, so that anyone who trusts in Him may never perish but have eternal life.
