CHRISTIANS are the sheep in God’s Word. The Lord Jesus Christ is “the door of the sheep.” He says: “By Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved.” Again He says, “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of My hand.” John 10:27, 2827My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. (John 10:27‑28).
The Lord Jesus Christ is the “Good Shepherd” and He “giveth His life for the sheep.”
Before we trusted the Lord Jesus Christ as our Saviour, we were “as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of” our souls.
