Christ applys His Salvation too !
If Christ did not also apply His Salvation, what His Death accomplished, it would be incomplete ! However Jesus says Jn 12:32

When these all men are drawn to Christ, it means that they...

Again, the Life referred to by the Manna from Heaven Jn 6:33 is Spiritual, Eternal, and Resurrection Life, and its given to a World that He redeemed, A world that is His Sheep, or His Church, or His Body, or the Elect of God, or Israel as the Israel of God ...

So the bringing out the prisoners from the prison [of unbelief] is deliverance out of unbelief, So faith or believing in Christ is the evidence that Christ's Redemptive Death worked, was effective, in redeeming from iniquity to include...

Again, to be concluded in unbelief as Per Rom 11:32 is to be literally imprisoned:

We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby...
1 Cor 15:45 He became a Life giving Spirit ! 2
Continuing our thought from the previous post, its no coincidence that the same word for quicken here in Jn 6:63
