He that eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is the true food, and my blood is the true drink. He that eats my flesh and drinks my blood continues in me, and I in him. As the living Father sent me and I live by the Father, so he that eats me shall live by me. This is the bread which came down from heaven; not as your fathers eat and died, he that eats this bread shall live forever. These things he said in a synagogue, teaching in Capernaum. Then many of his disciples hearing him said, This is a hard saying; who can hear him? And Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples complained of this, said to them, Does this offend you? [What], then if you should see the Son of man ascend where he was formerly? The Spirit is that which makes alive; the flesh profits nothing; the words which I have spoken to you are spirit and life.

Jesus Christ » History of » Teaches in the synagogue in capernaum
ON the next day, the multitude standing on the other side of the lake seeing that there was no other boat there except one, and that Jesus entered not into the ship with his disciples but his disciples had gone away alone,??23 but other boats came from Tiberias near the place where they had eaten bread after the Lord gave thanks,??24 when, therefore, the multitude saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they went into the ships and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus. And finding him on the other side of the lake they said to him, Rabbi, when came you hither? Jesus answered them and said, I tell you most truly, you seek me not because you saw miracles, but because you eat of the bread and were filled. read more.
Work not for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of man will give you; for him has God the Father sealed. Then they said to him, What shall we do to perform the works of God? Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God; to believe on him whom he has sent. Then they said to him, What miracle do you perform, that we may see and believe you? what work do you perform? Our fathers eat the manna in the wilderness, as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. Then Jesus said to them, I tell you most truly, Moses gave you not bread from heaven, but my Father gives you the true bread from heaven; for the bread of God is he that comes down from heaven and gives life to the world. Then they said to him, Sir, always give us this bread. Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life; he that comes to me shall never hunger, and he that believes in me shall never thirst. But I said to you, that you have seen me and believe not. Every thing which the Father gives to me shall come to me, and him that comes to me I will by no means cast out; for I came down from heaven not to do my will, but the will of him that sent me. And this is the will of him that sent me; that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but should raise it up at the last day. For this is the will of my Father, that every one who sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. Then the Jews complained of him because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven. And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how, then, does he say, I came down from heaven? Then Jesus answered and said to them, Complain not among yourselves. No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me shall draw him; and I will raise him up at the last day. It is written in the prophets, And all shall be taught of God. Every one who has heard and learned of the Father comes to me. Not that any one has seen the Father except he that is from God; he has seen the Father. I tell you most truly, He that believes has eternal life. I am the bread of life. Your fathers eat manna in the wilderness, and died; this is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if any one eats of this bread, he shall live forever; and the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.

And on that account he said, I told you that no one can come to me unless it has been given him by my Father.
