“And when they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, ‘Rabbi, when did You come here?’ Jesus answered them and said, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw the signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled. Do not labour for the food that perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because the Father has set His seal on Him.’ ” John 6:25-27

 

   Jesus perceived that the people were following Him for the wrong reasons and He made this known to them.

   It was not that they were seeking Him as the Son of Man (a title indicating His representation of them before God) but as a convenient provider, a meal-ticket, so to speak.

   The food He gave them for their stomachs would perish with the eating but what He was offering for their souls was everlasting.
