Jesus declares, “I am the Good Shepherd.” In John 10, He rebukes false shepherds and reveals His love, sacrifice, and power to save. He calls His sheep by name, leading them into abundant life—true joy, peace, and fellowship with Him.
In this sermon, Pastor Jonny Ardavanis walks through John 10 to reveal:
1. The Shepherd’s Character – Jesus is the Good Shepherd, set apart by His faithfulness, compassion, and unwavering care for His sheep.
2. The Shepherd’s Sacrifice – Jesus willingly laid down His life for His sheep, demonstrating the greatest act of love and redemption.
3. The Shepherd’s Knowledge – Jesus intimately knows His sheep, their struggles, fears, and joys, and they, in turn, know His voice and follow Him.
4. The Shepherd’s Wealth – Jesus gathers sheep from all nations into one flock, uniting them under His loving care and sovereign plan.
5. The Shepherd’s Power – Jesus’ authority over life and death proves He alone is the door to salvation and abundant, eternal life.
Jesus doesn’t just offer life after death—He offers fullness of life now. Will you follow His voice?
