John 10:8-11 NLT
All who came before me were thieves and robbers. But the true sheep did not listen to them.
Yes, I am the gate. Those who come in through me will be saved.
They will come and go freely and will find good pastures.
The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy.
My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd sacrifices his life for the sheep.

“God raised Jesus from the dead, and we are all witnesses of this.

at God’s right hand. And the Father, as he had promised, gave him the
Holy Spirit to pour out upon us, just as you see and hear today…

whom you crucified, to be both Lord and Messiah!”
