NO, He didn’t. He explained that rather succinctly as well.

John 6:64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him. 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.

So you see. He knew who had not been believers anyway. They wouldn’t have believed what He was saying even if it was written in scripture. Just like many Catholics and doubters in every church, denomination and area of life.

Scripture is (of course) quite right that He knew they wouldn't believe. That was their problem: that they didn't believe what He said about eating His Body and drinking His Blood.

Which He said about 5 or 6 times, so they couldn't miss it.
