"I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. As
the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my
life for the sheep. And other sheep I have, which are not of this
fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there
shall be one fold, and one shepherd. * * * My sheep hear my voice, and
I know them, and they follow me: and I give unto them eternal life;
and they shall never perish, neither shall any pluck them out of my
hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and none is
able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are
one."--John, x, 14-16, 27-30.
"And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man
shall be betrayed into the hands of men: and they shall kill him, and
the third day he shall be raised again. And they were exceeding
sorry."--Matt., xvii, 22, 23.
Of this same prophecy Mark relates: "And they departed thence, and
passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it.
For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is
delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after
that he is killed, he shall rise the third day. But they understood
not that saying, and were afraid to ask him."--Mark, ix, 30-32.
And Luke states, "And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God.
But while they wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he
said unto his disciples, Let these sayings sink down into your ears:
for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men. But they
understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they
perceived it not, and they feared to ask him of that saying."--Luke,
ix, 43-45.
"And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake
it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my
body. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them,
saying; Drink ye all of it; for this is my blood of the new testament,
which is shed for many, for the remission of sins."--Matt., xxvi,
26-28.
"And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and
gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body. And he took the
cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all
drank of it. And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new
testament, which is shed for many." Mark, xiv, 22-24.
"And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them,
saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance
of me. Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new
testament in my blood, which is shed for you."--Luke, xxii, 19, 20.
"For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father, with his
angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his
works."--Matt., xvi, 27.
