The Good Shepheard
Jun 23, 2024 • Henry Lawson
Jesus makes several “I am” statements in this passage. He says “I am the gate.” He also says “I am the good shepherd.” He is using some imagery that would have been well understood by shepherds of that day. We need to learn a little about context so that we might understand what he means. Jesus said that he came that His followers may have life and life to the full. What did he mean exactely? Are we seeking to have a “full life” through Jesus or are we looking for life somewhere else?
