Insightful, Biblical Devotions
“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” (John 10:10).
Christ is the good shepherd and only the good shepherd is able to give abundant life. He doesn’t run away when the wolf is coming to attack and scatter the sheep. He is the one who laid down His life for us, so once we follow Him, we have abundant life. If God didn’t spare His son, what else will He not give us? If God redeemed us from our sin, what else will He not do for us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? (Rom. 8:32).
God came to earth as human being in Christ to give us abundant life. “9 I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. (John 10:9-11). So, we just have to cooperate with God and live that abundant life that God has given to us.
