Turning away from God

Leading the sheep astray
turning away from God
the others, shepherds
thieves, robbers
leading us to destruction
death in their guiding
only in turning
in following the Good Shepherd
only through the gate of Christ
may we have life
only in turning
entering into heaven
the way of the cross
leading us to salvation

and to destroy: I am come that they might have life,
and that they might have it more abundantly.”
