If you are the Christ, tell us plainly." ²⁵ Jesus answered, "I told you already, but you did not believe. The miracles I do in my Father's name show who I am. ²⁶ But you don't believe, because you are not my sheep. ²⁷ My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. ²⁸ I give them eternal life, and they will never die, and no one can steal them out of my hand. ²⁹ My Father gave my sheep to me. He is greater than all, and no person can steal my sheep out of my Father's hand. ³⁰ The Father and I are one." ³¹ Again some of the people picked up stones to kill Jesus.
