Sheep and Shepherd

The Sheep and Shepherd Jesus mentions that sheep only listen to the voice of their own particular shepherd. They won't listen to a stranger. Men like the scribes and Pharisees don't accept Jesus: they are not part of "His" flock but of the Devil (John 8:42–47). Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
