The Door of the Sheep

 

 


John 10: 7-9 “So Jesus said to them again, “Truly, truly I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All those who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came so that they would have life and have it abundantly. 

Jesus Christ is the door. Jesus is the gate. Jesus is the way. Jesus is the truth. Jesus is the life. No one comes to the Father but through Jesus the Son. He is the narrow gate and narrow is the way that leads to life (Matthew 7: 13 – 14). 

Isaiah 59:2 “But your wrongdoings have caused a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you so that He does not hear.” Sin separates us from God and the only way that that sin can be atoned for is by the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on the Cross. His blood shed for you and me at Calvary that we might believe on Him and not perish but inherit eternal life (John 3:16). 

Enter by the narrow gate, for narrow is the way and broad is the road that leads to destruction. Believe that God so loved you that He gave His only Son, Jesus Christ, that when you believe on Him you will not perish but have eternal life. 

So, hear me when I say to you “Repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins and to receive the Holy Spirit,” (Acts 2:38). And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among mankind by which we must be saved, (Acts 4:12). 

Jesus is coming soon.
