WHO IS JESUS?

I AM the Bread of Life.
I AM the Light of the World.
I AM the

for the Sheep.
I AM the Good Shepherd.
I AM the Resurrection and the Life.
I AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
I AM the True Vine.

John 10:1-10
1 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the

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 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 what he was saying to them.
7  So Jesus again said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the of the sheep. 
8  All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 
9  I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture. 
10  The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have
life and have it .”

Throughout Scripture, God uses the symbolism of sheep to describe his people.

Psalm 100:3
We are his people, the sheep of his pasture.

SHEEP
 Are natural


 Are prone to wander
 Lack natural defenses
 Are on a shepherd

Isaiah 40:11
“He tends his flock like a shepherd:
He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them

to his heart…”

Two Questions for Today:
 Are you IN?
 Do you know how GOOD it is to be IN?

In the Sheepfold:
 You are


 You have Provision
 You have Relational Intimacy

Psalm 103:2-5
2  Praise the LORD, my soul,
    and forget not all his


3  who forgives all your sins
    and heals all your diseases,

4  who redeems your life from the pit
    and crowns you with love and compassion,
5  who satisfies your desires with good things
    so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
