John 10 Three Part Analysis

Observation Phase
Verses 1- 10:
The Shepard enters through the gate, anyone who comes in another way is a thief. His sheep know and listen to His voice; they follow Him and He calls them by name. The sheep run from strangers and only follow their Shepard. Those who came before Him were thieves who came to kill and destroy. He comes to give us joy life to the fullest. Whoever enters through the gate will be saved, there is no other entrance.

Verses 11-21: He is the good Shepard; the Shepard lays down His life for His sheep. The hired hand does not care for the sheep and abandons them in their time of need. The Shepard knows His sheep and they know Him, just like He knows the Father and the Father knows Him. All the sheep have one Shepard. The Father loves His Son because He lays down His life, that He may take it up again. He lays down His life by …show more content…

Not some of me, but all of me. He laid down His life and took it up with the Father, I will lay down my life to take it up in the Father’s name. He is the only good Shepard. All authority is His given by God. He as conquered sin and grave, death has no hold on Him. Those not of Him do not understand Him because they aren’t of Him. I will not be offended of rejection as I bear His name, and even through rejection His name is glorified. I will not doubt His name because He offers understanding freely. I will seek His voice, and His voice alone. I will tune to the spirit. My life is testimony His grace and goodness. This life is but a pit stop to spread and glorify His name before we see Him face to face where we will praise Him eternally. I cannot be stolen from His hands for He has conquered evil, my God is living and victorious. I will follow those not of God because my joy lies in Christ alone, the things of this world do not care for me. God is making a way, even when I cannot see Him where I

    I do not doubt it for a second. God has told us to love our neighbors as we love ourselves, which is one of God’s most important commandments, and John did that. God told us to love only one God, and John’s love for God did not waver. God told us that we are not to lie or bear false witness to our neighbor, and John never did. The only commandment John ever broke was adultery, and that was my fault.

    Hershel states “and shall come forth; they have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation” (the walking dead. Season 2) This biblical allusion reveals that the ones who doubt resurrection are the ones who doubt God. The biblical allusion also shows how important the bible is on the world and provides a sense of realism. The accurate and realistic use of the Biblical allusion provides reason in itself for why so many people look to the bible to get them through tough times.

    The fallen have obviously destroyed their credibility with the maker, and apologies and excuses alone will not save them. Continuing with His speech, He explains to His listeners that He wants them to be saved, but by doing so Himself He is against risking the truth of their free will. Basically, God is not so subtly looking for a volunteer to “Die he or justice must, unless for him/ Some other able and as willing to pay/ The rigid satisfaction, death for death” (3.210-212). Acting as all fathers do, He implements the tough love and says that if they’re going to act like that, someone has to take responsibility. And, as God’s creations, the angels are unwilling to suffer for the sins of another.

It’s from John that we get Christ’s famous claim “I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through me” -John 14:6. Jesus frequently uses metaphors to hint at his identity. John records more of these analogies than any other gospel, giving us some of the most famous word pictures for Christ.
