• 1 Tim 41-2
• Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter
  times some will depart from the faith, giving
  heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of
  demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having
  their own conscience seared with a hot iron,
• 2 Tim 43-4
• For the time will come when they will not endure
  sound doctrine, but according to their own
  desires, because they have itching ears, they
  will heap up for themselves teachers 4 and they
  will turn their ears away from the truth, and be
  turned aside to fables.

• Mark 4
• Verse 3 His first word to the crowds is,
  "Listen!"

  hear!"
• Verse 24 "Consider carefully what you hear!"

• Luke 2249-51
• 49 When those around Him saw what was going to
  happen, they said to Him, "Lord, shall we strike
  with the sword?" 50 And one of them struck the
  servant of the high priest and cut off his right
  ear. 51 And He touched his ear and healed him.

JOHN 101-27"Most assuredly, I say to you, he
who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but
climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and
a robber. 2 But he who enters by the door is the
shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the
doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice
and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them
out. 4 And when he brings out his own sheep, he
goes before them and the sheep follow him, for
they know his voice. 5 Yet they will by no means
follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for
they do not know the voice of strangers." 6
Jesus used this illustration, but they did not
understand the things which He spoke to them.
9

• JOHN 101-277 Then Jesus said to them again,
  "Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of
  the sheep. 8 All who ever came before Me are
  thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear
  them. 9 I am the door. If anyone enters by Me,
  he will be saved, and will go in and out and find
  pasture. 10 The thief does not come except to
  steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come
  that they may have life, and that they may have
  it more abundantly. 11 "I am the good shepherd.
  The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.
  12 But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd,
  one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf
  coming and leaves the sheep and flees and the
  wolf catches the sheep and scatters them. 13 The
  hireling flees because he is a hireling and does
  not care about the sheep. 14 I am the good
  shepherd and I know My sheep, and am known by My
  own.

10

• JOHN 101-2715 As the Father knows Me, even so I
  know the Father and I lay down My life for the
  sheep. 16 And other sheep I have which are not
  of this fold them also I must bring, and they
  will hear My voice and there will be one flock
  and one shepherd. 17
  "Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down
  My life that I may take it again. 18 No one
  takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I
  have power to lay it down, and I have power to
  take it again. This command I have received from
  My Father." 19 Therefore there was a division
  again among the Jews because of these sayings. 20
  And many of them said, "He has a demon and is
  mad. Why do you listen to Him?" 21 Others said,
  "These are not the words of one who has a demon.
  Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?" Now it
  was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem, and it
  was winter.

• JOHN 101-2715 As the Father knows Me, even so I
  know the Father and I lay down My life for the
  sheep. 16 And other sheep I have which are not
  of this fold them also I must bring, and they
  will hear My voice and there will be one flock
  and one shepherd. 17
  "Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down

  takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I
  have power to lay it down, and I have power to

  was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem, and it
  was winter.

12

• JOHN 101-2722 Now it was the Feast of
  Dedication in Jerusalem, and it was winter. 23
  And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon's
  porch. 24 Then the Jews surrounded Him and said
  to Him, "How long do You keep us in doubt? If
  You are the Christ, tell us plainly." 25 Jesus
  answered them, "I told you, and you do not
  believe. The works that I do in My Father's name,
  they bear witness of Me. 26 But you do not
  believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I
  said to you. 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I
  know them, and they follow Me.
