24 Then came the Jews around him, and said to him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou art the Christ, tell us plainly.
25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I did in my Father's name, they testify concerning me.
26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said to you.
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
28 And I give to them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any pluck them out of my hand.
29 My Father, who gave them to me, is greater than all; and none is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
30 I and my Father are one.
