John 6:56-69
"Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God." John 6:68,69
Some things are hard to accept. Not all who hear the Word will believe, and not all who believe will live in a way that reveals that belief in every aspect of their being.
In the concluding verses of this very challenging section of the gospel we learn that some turned back from following Jesus because they could not accept this teaching. The disciples recognised that there was no where else to go - and remained to 'feed on Jesus'.
'the one who feeds on me will live...'
