|
Date of Sermon: May 5 , 2024
Main Idea: We should follow Jesus because He seeks our good Key Verse: “To Him the gatekeeper opens. The sheep hear His voice, and He calls His own sheep by name and leads them out.” John 10:3 Bible reading: 1 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way, that man is a thief and a robber. 2 But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the gatekeeper opens. The sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. 5 A stranger they will not follow, but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.” 6 This figure of speech Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.
