Hebrews 2:16, 17: "For it was not the angels that he took to himself; he took to himself the line of Abraham.

And there are other sheep I have that are not of this fold, and I must lead these too. They too will listen to my voice, and there will be only one flock, one shepherd. The Father loves me, because I lay down my life in order to take it up again. No one takes it from me; I lay it down of my own free will, and as I have power to lay it down, so I have power to take it up again; and this is the command I have received from my Father." 1 John 3:16: "This is the proof of love, that he laid down his life for us, and we too ought to lay down our lives for our brothers."
