John

"Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber."

"But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep."

"To him the gatekeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out."

"And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice."

"Yet they will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers."

This parable spoke Jesus to them: but they understood not what things they were which he spoke to them.

Then Jesus said to them again, "Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep."

"All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them."

"I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture."

"The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."

"I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep."

"But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them."

"The hireling flees because he is a hireling and does not care for the sheep."

"I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own."

"As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep."

"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 and one shepherd."

"Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again."

"No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I have received from My Father."

There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.

And many of them said, He has a devil, and is mad; why hear you him?

Others said, These are not the words of him that has a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?

And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.

And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon’s porch.

Then came the Jews round about him, and said to him, How long dost you make us to doubt? If you be the Christ, tell us plainly.

Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father’s name, they bear witness of Me."

"But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you."

"My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me."

"And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand."

"My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand."

"I and My Father are one."

Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.

Jesus answered them, "Many good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?"

The Jews answered Him, "We are not stoning You for a good work, but for blasphemy; and because You, being a man, make Yourself God."

Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, ‘I said, "You are gods"’?"

"If He called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),"

"do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?"

"If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me;"

"but if I do, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him."

Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,

And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptised; and there he abode.

And many resorted to him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spoke of this man were true.

And many believed on him there.
