According to John 10:27, true believers will hear His voice and follow Him, indicating their identity as His sheep.
Jesus' assurance in John 10:27 provides a clear indicator of who His sheep are: 'My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.' To be one of Christ's sheep entails a personal relationship where the believer recognizes His voice through His Word and responds in faith and obedience. Assurance comes not from any actions on our part, but from understanding the work of the Shepherd on behalf of His sheep, who provides the ability to believe and follow Him. Therefore, if you recognize your need for Him and trust Him solely for your salvation, it is an indication that you are embracing your identity as one of His own.
