Brothers and Sisters in the Lord: When kids hear the term "stranger danger," they know what that means! There is someone who might hurt them…so they must run to safety.
You teach them not to engage with that person because that person is not in their self-interest.
There were "stranger dangers" in the Bible also, and Jesus warned his people not to follow them.
The "stranger dangers" who were supposed to be shepherds of Israel, plundered the sheep! They should have been a place of safety and comfort for the sheep, but they were savages who abused the sheep for their own benefit. They were not good under-shepherds!
Jesus told his people not only to avoid these dangerous shepherds, but to come to him and receive his benefits because he was the True Shepherd!
Yes, Jesus is the Bread of Life, the Light of Life, the Door of Life, and now you see him as the Good Shepherd who preserves life!
Hear about this today.
Our headings are: 1. How is Jesus the Good Shepherd 2. What are the Implications of the Good Shepherd to You
