How we know we are His sheep 9 - 1 - 24
Last weeks two points:
1. Jesus knows His sheep
2. We know him if we keep his commands 1 John 2:3. We love Jesus if we keep his commands John 14:15. Not one person has earned his salvation (Eph 2:8-10, Titus 3:5). Obedience is the evidence and proof of salvation and our justification (James 2:24, 1 Peter 1:22).
Joh 10:27 ìMy sheep listen to My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;
Joh 10:28 and I give them eternal life, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.
Jesus lays down his life for his sheep (John 10:11): we love because he first loved us1 John 4:19
Jesus leads us to find pasture (John 10:9) Ps 23.
Jesus came so that they would have life, and have it abundantly (John 10:10).
Jesus gives us peace and we are not to worry and seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided you. Matt 6:31-33).
The Holy Spirit is given to us freely and all we have to do is drink and from our innermost being will flow rivers of living water. With this we can overcome the world and obey His commands. We know we are conquerors in all we face.
Joh 7:37 Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, ìIf anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.
Joh 7:38 The one who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ëFrom his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.íî
Joh 7:39 But this He said in reference to the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
