The Good Shepard
1 I tell you the truth, anyone who sneaks over the wall of a sheepfold, rather than going through the gate, must surely be a thief and a robber!2But the one who enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep.3The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep recognize his voice and come to him. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.4After he has gathered his own flock, he walks ahead of them, and they follow him because they know his voice.5They wont follow a stranger; they will run from him because they dont know his voice.
6Those who heard Jesus use this illustration didnt understand what he meant,7so he explained it to them:I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep.8All who came before mewere thieves and robbers. But the true sheep did not listen to them.9Yes, I am the gate. Those who come in through me will be saved.They will come and go freely and will find good pastures.10The thiefs purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.
11I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd sacrifices his life for the sheep.12A hired hand will run when he sees a wolf coming. He will abandon the sheep because they dont belong to him and he isnt their shepherd. And so the wolf attacks them and scatters the flock.13The hired hand runs away because hes working only for the money and doesnt really care about the sheep.
14I am the good shepherd; I know my own sheep, and they know me,15just as my Father knows me and I know the Father. So I sacrifice my life for the sheep.16I have other sheep, too, that are not in this sheepfold. I must bring them also. They will listen to my voice, and there will be one flock with one shepherd.
17The Father loves me because I sacrifice my life so I may take it back again.18No one can take my life from me. I sacrifice it voluntarily. For I have the authority to lay it down when I want to and also to take it up again. For this is what my Father has commanded.
19When he said these things, the peoplewere again divided in their opinions about him.20Some said, Hes demon possessed and out of his mind. Why listen to a man like that?21Others said, This doesnt sound like a man possessed by a demon! Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?Watch at: https://vimeo.com/480060234
