The document summarizes a passage from the Bible (John 10: 1-21) where Jesus refers to himself as the Good Shepherd and contrasts his role with that of religious leaders at the time, referred to as thieves and robbers. It then discusses how this passage has been used traditionally by Quakers to oppose pastoral ministry. It suggests the passage indicates that Jesus' message was meant for all people, not just Jews, and that while other religions may imprison people, Jesus offers freedom and will unite all people regardless of religion. It concludes by asking how to recognize Jesus' voice so that it can be taught to others.
