Herein lies the beauty of being a philosopher! You can tke your sophistry to 
a more sophisticated level. Of course, any philosopher worth his soph can 
translate Greek by himself, so have at it:

http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%206%20;&version=69;

Or choose any one of the other 35 translations available there.

If that still doesn't make the point clear, check with any major 
confessional statement or catechism (e.g., the Westminster Confession of 
Faith or Westminster Larger Catechism), or major commentators in the 
Protestant, Roman Catholic, or Eastern Orthodox traditions.

I'll be frank: the point under consideration is only "controversial" among 
ignorami.
