But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, just as I said to you.
My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
And whenever he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
All that the Father gives Me shall come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.
And He said, "Because of this I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father."
He who is of God hears God's words; therefore you do not hear them, because you are not of God."
We are of God. He that knows God hears us; he that is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.
