Jesus Is The Good Shepherd
|
What do you do for a Valentine's Day message but talk about LOVE!
So Jesus said to them ,
"I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep." - John 10:11 NASB
This was still a prophecy. One we understand now, but when Jesus said it, the disciples didn't get it. Later Jesus reaffirms this prophecy using "love": " Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends." - John 15:13 NASB Decades later the Apostle John writes this about God & in particular Jesus: " for God is love...We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him." - 1 John 4:8, 16 NASB What a great God who shows us Great Love...by dying for us and then living IN us! He truly is the Great Shepherd! Listen to Phil's message on I AM the Good Shepherd online>>
