All who came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep heard them not. I am the door: if any come in through me, he shall be saved, and he shall me in, and go out, and find pasture. The thief comes not, except that he steal, and sacrifice, and destroy: I came that they might have life, and have above measure.

As the Father knows me, I also know the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. And I have, other sheep, which are not of this court-yard: and I must also bring them, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one flock, and one shepherd.
