John 17:1-23

Jesus spoke these words; and lifting up His eyes to heaven, said, Father, the hour has come; glorify thy Son, in order that the Son may glorify thee: as thou didst give Him authority over all flesh, in order that whatsoever thou hast given unto Him, He may give unto them eternal life. But this is eternal life, that they know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou didst send. read more.
I glorified thee upon the earth, having finished the work that thou hast given to me that I may do it. And now, Father, glorify thou me with thyself with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. I have manifested thy name, to the men whom thou didst give me out of the world. They were thine, and thou didst give them to me; and they have kept thy word: now they know that all things so many as thou hast given to me are with thee: because the words which thou didst give me I have given unto them; and they received them, and they know truly that I came out from thee, and they believed that thou didst send me. I pray for these: I pray not for the world; but for those whom thou hast given me, because they are thine: and all mine are thine, and thine are mine: and I have been glorified in them. And I am no longer in the world, and they are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them through my name whom thou hast given unto me, in order that they may be one, as we are. When I was with them, I was keeping them in thy name whom thou hast given unto me. And I guarded them, and no one of them perished, except the son of perdition; that the Scripture may be fulfilled. And now I come to thee; and speak these things in the world, that they may have my joy complete in themselves. I have given unto them thy word; and the world hated them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world. I do not pray that you may take them out of the world, but that you may keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through the truth: thy word is truth. As thou didst send me into the world, I also sent them into the world: and I sanctify myself in their behalf, in order that they may also be sanctified through the truth. And I not only pray for these, but also for those believing on me through their word; that they may all be one, as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be in us; that the world may believe that thou didst send me. And I have given unto them the glory which thou hast given unto me; in order that they may be one, as we are one; I in them, and thou in me, in order that they may be perfected into one; in order that the world may know that thou didst send me, and didst love them, as thou didst love me.

John 10:6-16

He spoke this parable to them: but they did not know what things He was speaking to them. Then Jesus said, Truly, truly, I say unto you, that I am the door of the sheep. All so many as came were thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. read more.
I am the door: if any one may enter in through me, he shall be saved; he shall go in and come out, and find pasture. The thief does not come, but that he may steal, and slay, and destroy: I came that they may have life, and have it more abundantly. I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep. The hireling, and the one not being the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees away, and the wolf seizes and scatters them: because he is a hireling and there is not a care to him for the sheep. I am the Good Shepherd; I know mine, and mine know me, as the Father knows Me, and I know the Father; and I lay down My soul for the sheep. And I have other sheep which are not of this fold: and it behooves me to bring them and they shall hear my voice, and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
