John 10:22-30 We Know Jesus Is Trustworthy and True

The world is filled with talkers. Many people claim to care about you. However, we know what many of those individuals do when it's time to turn their words into action. Jesus tells you in his Word that he cares for you dearly... that he would do anything for you... that he’s leading you into the green pastures of paradise. How do you know you can trust him? Simple. Jesus followed up his words with action. Jesus promised he would die to save you from your sin. He did. Scripture promised the Savior would rise from the dead, proving that payment for sins was complete. It happened. Jesus always follows through on what he says. Every promise he makes is fulfilled. Jesus once illustrated this point with a striking metaphor: that of the Good Shepherd. All shepherds use words, calling to the sheep in hopes they will follow. What sets the Good Shepherd apart is that his words are accompanied by action, including his willingness to lay down his life for his sheep. Because he lives, we know Jesus is trustworthy and true.
