JOHN 10

I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. He who is a hired hand, and not a shepherd, who doesn't own the sheep, sees the wolf coming, leaves the sheep, and flees. The wolf snatches the sheep, and scatters them. The hired hand flees because he is a hired hand, and doesn't care for the sheep. I am the good shepherd. I know my own, and I'm known by my own; even as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. I lay down my life for the sheep. I have other sheep, which are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will hear my voice. They will become one flock with one shepherd. Therefore the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again. No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down by myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. I received this commandment from my Father.

When was the second gospel written?

There is strong evidence that the first gospel, now known as Mark's Gospel, was written within two or three years of the year 70 CE. The second gospel, Matthew's Gospel is widely believed to have been written around 85 CE, although Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) suggests an allowance of about ten years either way.


What are St. Paul's three missions?

Paul's three missions included announcing the Gospel to non-Jews in places where it had never been heard, spread the Gospel to private homes, and to focus on urban centers so that the Gospel might spread from the communities he founded there, outwards to the rest of the country. Saint Paul is one of the most important figures in the Catholic Church.


How many years of Jesus' life does John's Gospel cover?

Scholars say that the mission of Jesus described in the synoptic gospels could have been accomplished in just a few weeks, and that they certainly seem to assume that his mission was no more than one year. John's Gospel must cover a period of just over three years, because of the four visits to Jerusalem at the time of the Passover.
