Fourth Sunday of Eastertide

Hi folks, here is the sermon topic for this Sunday. We will be looking at Psalm 23, Acts 9:36-43, Revelation 7:9-17, John 10:22-30. The title of this week's sermon is “Don’t be Baaaad: Be a Part of God’s Flock!” We will begin with the Gospel text, which comes from the chapter where Jesus refers to Himself as the "Good Shepherd." In this part of the text, the Pharisees are quite angry with Jesus and looking to take Him out. So they ask Him who He is, and if He is the Messiah. He answers that He has already told them, but they don't listen because they are not a part of His flock. Those who belong to His flock are those who hear His voice and follow them. Christ even says that He knows them. I then show why it matters that we follow Christ by looking at the declaration of God's providence for His sheep in Psalm 23. If that sparks your interest, you know the time and place: 10:45 on Sunday at Bessemer Presbyterian.
