THE GOOD SHEPHERD I am the door. If anyone enters in by me, he will be saved, and will go in and go out, and will find pasture. (John 10:9) The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly. (John 10:10) I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. (John 10:11) I am the good shepherd. I know my own, and I'm known by my own; (John 10:14) even as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. I lay down my life for the sheep. (John 10:15) Therefore the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again. (John 10:17) No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down by myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. I received this commandment from my Father. (John 10:18) My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. (John 10:27) I give eternal life to them. They will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. (John 10:28) My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all. No one is able to snatch them out of my Father's hand. (John 10:29) World English Bible (public domain).
