Jesus knew we needed to move from here to there, and that there needed to be a way for this to happen. “So Jesus said to them again, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.” (John 10:7)
Jesus is the door to the Kingdom. He is the ONLY way people may find life. Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.” (John 14:6)
Matthew 5:3-9 have been called the beatitudes. It describes a chain of heart events which lead a man or woman through the door of the sheep and through the door of repentance. It is literally the beginning of real life! Pages 19-21 of the Kingdom book reasons through the root word meanings of this often undeveloped passage. What do you see?
What do you think that it means to enter through the door of the sheep? How has this looked for you?
Amazing.
