Sunday Sermon | Jesus Christ: The Door and The Good Shepherd | John | Part 14

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 10:1-42. Chapter 9 and 10 speak to spiritual clarity and understanding, what is really true about God and ourselves. This point is continued in chapter 10 with the concept of the Lord Jesus being the good shepherd. He is establishing the simple idea that the relationship between the Lord Jesus and the redeemed is that of a shepherd and His sheep - a glorious relationship. When we think about sheep, it may be that we consider that being a sheep is a mark of immaturity. We may be persuaded that we can become spiritually mature enough to not be considered sheep anymore; but that is not true. Our dependency is not a mark of immaturity as we will never mature out of needing a shepherd. As sheep, we are dependent creatures and our maturity in Christ will never change that fact.
