Text: John 10:26-29 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.

STOPPED FOLLOWING HIM
John 6:66-68 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. 67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? 68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words [rhma, spoken words] of eternal [agelasting kingdom] life.

GUARD THEM, HOLY FATHER
John 17:11 And now I am no more in the world [Israel], but these are in the world [Israel], and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep [guard] through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.
