Hi Jim,
See, I don't need to pit that verse against other things He says in the text.
Things like the summary of the parable eat flesh, drink blood which as soon as the summary was given, cued by the word "therefore", the disciples that the Father was not drawing through the hearing of the faith of Christ , walked away as evidence to the summary, which in the end of the matter, verse 65 the key verse, explains the whole John six discourse in a mere 21 spiritual words.
Joh 6:65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
