John 10:7-21 - Jesus The Good Shepherd
7 Jesus therefore said, Truly, truly do I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All those who came are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not hear them. 9 I am the door; if any one enter through me, he will be saved, and will go in and out, and find pasture. 10 The thief cometh not but to steal, and to kill, and to destroy; I came that they might have life, and have abundance.
11 I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. 12 He that is a hireling and not a shepherd, nor the owner of the sheep, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth; and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep; 13 because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
14 I am the good shepherd, and I know my sheep, and they know me, 15 even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I give my life for the sheep. 16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold; them also I must bring; and they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock, one shepherd. 17 On this account the Father loveth me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again. 18 No one taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it again; this charge I received from my Father.
19 Again there arose a division among the Jews on account of these words. 20 Many of them said, He hath a demon, and is mad; why do ye hear him? 21 Others said, These are not the words of one that hath a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?
