Luke 15:4-7
What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and having lost one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and his neighbors, saying unto them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.I say unto you, that even so there shall be joy in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine righteous persons, who need no repentance.

John 10:11-21
I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd layeth down his life for the sheep.He that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholdeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the wolf snatcheth them, and scattereth them:he fleeth because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.I am the good shepherd; and I know mine own, and mine own know me,even as the Father knoweth me, and I know 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 they shall become one flock, one shepherd.Therefore doth the Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.No one taketh it away 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 commandment received I from my Father.There arose a division again among the Jews because of these words.And many of them said, He hath a demon, and is mad; why hear ye him?Others said, These are not the sayings of one possessed with a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?
