John 6:37 - I will never throw outside?

Does John 6:37 have conditions?


John 6:37: "All that the Father gives (to) Me will-come to Me, and I-will never throw outside the (one) COMING TO Me."


"Coming" to me:

Jesus said: "I-will never throw outside the (one) COMING TO Me" (John 6:37).

On which condition will Jesus "never throw outside" (John 6:37) someone? Jesus said that it was on the condition of being "(one) COMING TO Me" (John 6:37). 

The Greek word here for "COMING" is in the Present tense, which refers to a present event.

A condition to be "COMING TO" Jesus is for example to be willing to, as Jesus said: "you-are not willing TO-COME TO Me in-order-that you-may-have life" (John 5:40).

A condition to be "COMING TO" Jesus is for example having heard from the Father and having learned, as Jesus said: "Everyone having-heard from the Father and having-learned, COMES TO Me" (John 6:45). The Greek words for "having-heard" (John 6:45) and "having-learned" (John 6:45) are in the active voice, which can indicate that the subject is the doer or performer of the action.
