As we come to the end of chapter 10 we are approaching a transition in the Gospel of John. Up to this point Jesus has been focused on His public ministry: performing signs and making Himself known to the world. However, after chapter 10 His ministry becomes more private as He begins to prepare Himself and His disciples for the cross.

In this section of chapter 10 we have a final confrontation between Jesus and the Jewish leaders in Jerusalem. This interaction can be summarized this way:

Jesus declares that He is God, He and the Father are One and that those who believe in Him have a salvation that is never ending and forever secure.
