John 10:21-31

21 Others argued, "That is not the language of a demoniac: and can a demon open blind men's eyes?"

22 The Dedication Festival came on in Jerusalem. It was winter,

23 and Jesus was walking in the Temple in Solomon's Portico,

24 when the Jews gathered round Him and kept asking Him, "How long do you mean to keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us so plainly."

25 "I have told you," answered Jesus, "and you do not believe. The deeds that I do in my Father's name--they give testimony about me.

26 But you do not believe, because you are not my sheep.

27 My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

28 I give them the Life of the Ages, and they shall never, never perish, nor shall any one wrest them from my hand.

29 What my Father has given me is more precious than all besides; and no one is able to wrest anything from my Father's hand.

30 I and the Father are one."

31 Again the Jews brought stones with which to stone Him.
