AM the Good Shepherd. John 10:11

" I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. JOHN 10:11

The bad compared to the good Then Jesus said to them again, " Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. John 10:7-8 SHEPHERDS – THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE PHONY

The bad compared to the good 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 does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. John 10:9-10 SHEPHERDS – THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE PHONY

The phony compared to the good I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them. The hireling flees because he is a hireling and does not care about the sheep. John 10:11-13 SHEPHERDS – THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE PHONY

The phony compared to the good For a bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self- willed, not quick- tempered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober- minded, just, holy, self-controlled, holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict. For there are many insubordinate, both idle talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, SHEPHERDS – THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE PHONY

The phony compared to the good whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole households, teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of dishonest gain. Titus 1:7-11 SHEPHERDS – THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE PHONY

Protection from sin I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own. As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep. John 10:14-15 WHAT THE GOOD SHEPHERD OFFERS

Protection from sin For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. Romans 5:10 WHAT THE GOOD SHEPHERD OFFERS

Family of believers And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they will hear My voice; and there will be one flock and one shepherd. John 10:16 WHAT THE GOOD SHEPHERD OFFERS

But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you. My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. John 10:26-27 TO THOSE NOT FOLLOWING THE SHEPHERD

My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. John 10:27 TO THOSE NOT FOLLOWING THE SHEPHERD

My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. John 10:27-28 CONCLUSION

For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls. 1 Peter 2:25 CONCLUSION
