1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

12When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.

22The next day the crowd that had stayed on the opposite shore of the lake realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not entered it with his disciples, but that they had gone away alone. 23Then some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks. 24Once the crowd realized that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum in search of Jesus. 25When they found him on the other side of the lake, they asked him, Rabbi, when did you get here? 26Jesus answered, Very truly I tell you, you are looking for me, not because you saw the signs I performed but because you ate the loaves and had your fill. 27Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval. 28Then they asked him, What must we do to do the works God requires? 29Jesus answered, The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent. 30So they asked him, What sign then will you give that we may see it and believe you? What will you do? 31Our ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written: 'He gave them bread from heaven to eat.' 32Jesus said to them, Very truly I tell you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. 33For the bread of God is the bread that comes down from heaven and gives life to the world. 34Sir, they said, always give us this bread. 35Then Jesus declared, I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty. 36But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe. 37All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. 38For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me. 39And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me, but raise them up at the last day.

14After the people saw the sign Jesus performed, they began to say, Surely this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.

20Therefore no one will be declared righteous in God's sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin.

23for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

7The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so.

2Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and you will delight in the richest of fare. 3Give ear and come to me; listen, that you may live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, my faithful love promised to David.

3The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.

14The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

52Then the Jews began to argue sharply among themselves, How can this man give us his flesh to eat? 53Jesus said to them, Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.

8Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.

14How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, Or [from useless rituals] so that we may serve the living God!

9There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God;

60On hearing it, many of his disciples said, This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?

66From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him.

68Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. 69We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God.

19And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.
