Questions The Bible Asks Us

When we open the Scriptures, we bring our questions to God—but the Bible also comes to us with deep, searching questions of its own.In this sermon on John 10:1–21, Lead Pastor Neil McClendon digs into the rich imagery of Jesus as both the Door and the Good Shepherd. Contrasting true shepherd leadership with the destructive nature of false teachers, Pastor Neil explores five foundational questions that emerge directly from the text. The message challenges believers to move beyond religious duty or performance and enter into an intimate, voice-recognized relationship with Christ—one defined by genuine salvation, spiritual freedom, divine provision, and ultimate security.In this episode, we cover:How God Designed Relationship: Moving away from shame, guilt, and religious duty to experience the intimate communion of a shepherd leading his sheep.Recognizing God's Voice: Understanding that God primarily speaks to believers by His Son, through His Spirit, in the Scriptures.The Experiences That Characterize Faith: Examining the three biblical markers of true Christianity—being saved, walking in freedom, and experiencing God's rich provision.Identifying the Thief: Exposing the false teachers and legalistic religious systems that seek to steal, kill, and destroy rather than lead people to Christ.Overcoming the Fear of Death: Living with confidence in the resurrection, knowing that Jesus willingly laid down His life and had the authority to take it up again.Be sure to follow us:InstagramFacebookYoutube
