About this listen
The Shepherd Who Stays
Jn. 10:11-18
Bible Talk Outline
◊ He stays to sacrifice—Jesus’ commitment is total
◦ because he is “good”—faithful character is essential (v. 11)
◦ because we “belong” to him—bonded relationship is
paramount (v. 12a, 13-15)
◦ because “attacks” and “scattering” kill—holy community
must be protected (v. 12b)
Do we stay sacrificially committed to the faith community?
◊ He stays to multiply---God’s Kingdom expanded (v. 16)
Do we stay excitedly committed to Kingdom expansion?
◊ He stays to fulfill—Jesus’ mission is accomplished
◦ because of his relationship with the Father—loving God is
the greatest motive (v. 17a)
◦ because he “can take…up” his life—the resurrection is
the greatest victory (v. 17b-18a)
◦ because he treasures the Father’s will—God’s will is the
greatest goal (v. 18b)
Do we stay lovingly committed to God’s will?
