Prophecies of Shepherds
Jeremiah 23:
Jeremiah 25:32
John 1-
It is understood that in this time period, most Jewish families had sheep.
They were raised for their wool.
The sheep were kept in some type of enclosure at night time, often multiple herds were kept together.
An underling often stood watch at the gate.
Coming off the discussion with the false teachers in chapter 9, which were prophecies of the Old Testament, Jesus contrasts Himself with them.
The person that tries to get to the sheep other that through the gate has ulterior motives.
Jesus borrowed from the custom of that country to make a point.
John
The evidence of the thief and the robber is they don’t come in lawfully, they come in the with the idea of doing damage.
Their character distinguishes them from the rightful owner.
The rightful owner comes and goes as one with authority.
The rightful owner comes to do good while the thief comes to do harm.
The rightful owner comes in to bind up, to strengthen and to feed.
Sheep need its owner’s care and in turn the sheep provide care for the owner through the profits of the wool.
This concept was mentioned in
1 Corinthians
Who was the watchman for Jesus?
John the Baptist
Every God-sent minister since then
Sheep know His voice.
The world is full of many voices.
How do we discern the voice of our True Shepherd?
Those really chosen by God will hear the voice of God.
He calls them by name.
If someone knows your name, what does that mean?
Our shepherd is PERSONAL.
He is familiar with who we are.
The shepherd calls them by name and leads them out.
What other famous passage of scripture does this remind you of?
Our shepherd PROTECTS.
Notice our shepherd leads; He does not drive.
The shepherd has called all of His sheep by name, and proceeds to lead them.
This is reminiscent of .
I understand sheep are traumatized when they are sold and brought into a new flock.
It takes them several days to make the adjustment.
In this passage, the stranger is the thief of a robber.
We need only to follow the MASTER’S voice, the Shepherd’s voice.
This is a stern warning about following voices other than that of Jesus.
People come to God because He calls them:
John 8:
The proper response to the call is FOLLOW HIM.
John 1:
We must see the Lord as our shepherd!
The people did not understand the Lord was not their shepherd.
They did not
