What Is The Access?
John 10:1-2 – Truly I say to you, He who does not go through the door into the place where the sheep are kept, but gets in by some other way, is a thief and an outlaw. He who goes in by the door is the keeper of the sheep.
The access used matters a lot. There is a door and there are ‘doors’ as well as there is a way and there are ‘ways’. We the sheep should always watch the access used to get to us. Is it through the door or through the ‘doors’?
The ‘doors’ are those that seems like the door but are in no way the door. The Bible makes us to understand that the door and the way is Jesus; John 10:7-9, John 14:6.
Any keeper of the sheep [church leader or pastor or teacher of the Bible] that is not accessing the sheep [teaching, nurturing, grooming and pruning the sheep] in the name of Jesus is a thief and an outlaw so says the Bible.
It is our responsibility as the sheep to know the access used in reaching us. Are we being taught in the name of the Lord Jesus or are we being taught with human philosophy, gimmicks and doctrines?
May God help us to always know the access used in reaching us. May God also help us to know the voice of our Lord Jesus. Shalom!
