This is come follow me for us hybrid a little bit of old a little bit of new because yeah, I said it and it was good

Please I'm your host Melanie Strabbed this is

This is season five episode 16 John 7 through 10 I am the good shepherd and for some reason I forgot to read the intro

In the old one so I'm gonna read the new intro and then just head right into the lesson

I did put some thoughts in the middle end at the end from nowadays

20 23 so if you're just going back and listening to the old ones then you're getting a lot of nonsense that doesn't have anything to do with right now

So in the manual it says although Jesus Christ came to bring peace and goodwill toward men

There was a division among the people because of him

People who witnessed the same events came to very different conclusions about who Jesus was

Some concluded he is a good man while others said he deceives the people when he healed the blind man on the Sabbath

Some insisted this man is not of God because he keepeth not the Sabbath day while others ask

How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles?

Yet despite all the confusion those who search for truth recognized his power in his words for never man spake like this man

When the Jews asked Jesus to tell us plainly whether he was a Christ

He revealed a principle that can help us distinguish truth from error

My sheep hear my voice he said and I know them and they follow me

Let's start in John seven and the header for this section says as I live the truth taught by Jesus Christ

I will come to know they are true

And this is what I talk about all the time if we're doers of the word and not just hearers

Then we get somewhere in our life and the gospel starts just melding into our souls

So let's start reading now in John 7

14 it says now about the myths of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and taught and the Jews
