More red herrings. People do not fall away because of deception or hardship. those whom Christ has embraced and taken as His own can never become separated from Him. You see I may place my hand is His but He never lets me go. He is faithful even when I stumble and fall. He lifts me up and restores me every time I fall.

seems to me the word of God says when one lamb, because of deception (I can live outside the flock) and hardship (I need to find my own way, the flock is causing me pain) walks away from the flock. Jesus leaves the entire flock to go get him.
The lamb KNOWS his voice and follows after him, if the sheep is not his, he will not know his voice, and continue walking
This means nothing. He can be our Shepard (father) yet we will still not hear his voice and run, even though the bible explicitly says otherwise.
