The Good Shepherd Teaching

The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.

I am the good shepherd.The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

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.

I am the good shepherd. I know my own, and I’m known by my own;

I have other sheep, which are not of this fold.I must bring them also, and they will hear my voice. They will become one flock with one shepherd.

“Most certainly, I tell you, one who doesn’t enter by the door into the sheep fold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
