7 Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All who ever came before me are thieves and robbers, but the _____ did not hear them. -John 10:7-8
Correct Answer
B. Sheep
Explanation
In this passage, Jesus is using the metaphor of a shepherd and his sheep to describe his relationship with his followers. He states that he is the door of the sheep, meaning that he is the only way for them to enter into a relationship with God. He contrasts himself with those who came before him, referring to false prophets or leaders who tried to deceive the people. The correct answer, "sheep," refers to the true followers of Jesus who recognize his voice and follow him, while the others, represented by "thieves and robbers," do not hear or recognize him as the true shepherd.

B. Not of My sheep
Explanation
In this passage, Jesus is addressing a group of people who do not believe in Him. He tells them that the works He does in His Father's name serve as evidence of His divinity. He then explains that their lack of belief is due to the fact that they are "not of My sheep." This phrase suggests that they do not belong to His flock, meaning they are not His followers or believers. Therefore, the correct answer is "not of My sheep."
