“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 on behalf of the sheep.”
To: ALL
WHO HAVE EARS TO HEAR
From: GOD THE FATHER, THE LORD JESUS
CHRIST HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper, that He may be
with you forever. [John 14:16]
Subject: MY WORD; John 1:1 (NKJV) 1 In the
beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 (NKJV) 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us,
and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full
of grace and truth.
John 10:1–7 (ESV) 1 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold
by the door but climbs in by another way, that man is a thief and a robber. 2
But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the gatekeeper opens. The sheep hear
his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4
When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow
him, for they know his voice. 5 A stranger they will not follow,
but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.” 6
This figure of speech Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he
was saying to them. 7 So
Jesus again said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the
sheep.
John 10:8–13 (AMP) 8 All others who came
[as such] before Me are thieves and robbers, but the [true] sheep did not listen to and obey them. 9
I am the Door; anyone who enters in through Me will be saved (will live). He
will come in and he will go out [freely], and will find pasture. 10
The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they
may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it
overflows). 11 I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd risks and
lays down His [own] life for the sheep. 12 But the hired servant (he
who merely serves for wages) who is neither the shepherd nor the owner of the
sheep, when he sees the wolf coming, deserts the flock and runs away. And the
wolf chases and snatches them and scatters [the flock]. 13
Now the hireling flees because he merely serves for wages and is not himself
concerned about the sheep [cares nothing for them].
Psalm 23:1–6 (NASB95) 1 The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not want. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads
me beside quiet waters. 3 He restores my soul; He guides me in the
paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before
me in the presence of my enemies; You have anointed my head with oil; My cup
overflows. 6 Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all
the days of my life, And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
John 10:14–18 (CJB) 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 on
behalf of the sheep. 16 Also I have other sheep which are not from
this pen; I need to bring them, and they will hear my voice; and there will be
one flock, one shepherd. 17 “This
is why the Father loves me: because I lay down my life—in order to take it up
again! 18 No one takes it away from me; on the contrary, I lay it
down of my own free will. I have the power to lay it down, and I have the power
to take it up again. This is what my Father commanded me to do.”

Peter 1:16–21 (Williams) 16
For it was not mere stories of fancy that we followed when we told
you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been
eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He received such honor and
glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory there was borne to Him
a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom I take delight.” 18
we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven while we were with Him on that
sacred mountain. 19 So we have the message of the prophets more
certainly guaranteed. Please pay
attention to this message as to a lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until
the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; 20 because
you recognize this truth above all else, that
no prophecy in Scripture is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21
for no prophecy has ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by
the Holy Spirit spoke from God.]
Philippians 2:9–11 (The Living
Bible)9 Yet it was because of this that God raised
him up to the heights of heaven and gave him a name which is above every other
name, 10 that at the name of
Jesus every knee shall bow in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11
and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God
the Father.
