My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they
follow me: and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish,
neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.  My Father, which gave them me, is greater
than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.  I and my Father are one.
  

John 10:27-30
