“The Good Shepherd”:
I am the good shepherd.
I know my own and my own know me,
just as the Father knows me and I know the Father
; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
And I have other sheep that are not of this fold.
I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice.
So there will be one flock, one shepherd.
For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again.
No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord.
I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again.
This charge I have received from my Father.’
(John 10 : 14-18 – ESV)
