Scripture Passage: - John 10:11-24
[11] I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
[12] He who is a hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them.
[13] He flees because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.
[14] I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me,
[15] just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
[16] 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.
[17] For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again.
[18] 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.”
[19] There was again a division among the Jews because of these words.
[20] Many of them said, “He has a demon, and is insane; why listen to him?”
[21] Others said, “These are not the words of one who is oppressed by a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?”
[22] At that time the Feast of Dedication took place at Jerusalem. It was winter,
[23] and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the colonnade of Solomon.
[24] So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.”
