The Shepherd's Sheep Who Choose The Shepherd

Summary

The sermon explores the division between two groups of people in response to Jesus Christ: those who accept Him as the Shepherd and have faith, and those who reject Him and are spiritually blind and hostile. It emphasizes that spiritual life and faith are gifts from God, and only those chosen by God can truly believe and follow Jesus. The preacher highlights key biblical passages illustrating this division, the role of Jesus as the Shepherd, the Door, and the Porter, and the necessity of being born again to see and understand the kingdom of God. The message calls for recognizing Jesus as the exclusive way to salvation and encourages faith in Him despite opposition and doubt.
