- I am the gate. Whoever enters by me will be saved, and will come in and go out and find pasture.
- The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.
- I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
- I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one will snatch them out of my hand. What my Father has given me is greater than all else, and no one can snatch it out of the Father's hand. The Father and I are one.
But even if you do suffer for doing what is right, you are blessed. Do not fear what they fear, and do not be intimidated.
