The Pilgrim's Progress - Week 10
The Voice of the Good Shepherd
In the Light by Matthew Koop
Personal Meditation
KEY THEMES:
- Pastors are like shepherds. They care for us as their sheep, warn us against wrong beliefs, and equip us to face enemies of Christ.
- Hell is a real place. Those who refuse to repent of their sin and trust in Christ will go there when they die.
- We can praise God for providing all we need to follow Jesus
KEY VERSES:
John 10:11-15
11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. 13 The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.
14 “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— 15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep.
Jude 24-25
24 To him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy— 25 to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.
Psalm 147:1
Praise the Lord.
How good it is to sing praises to our God,
how pleasant and fitting to praise him!
