OzoIgboNdu1 of Igbo Defender

I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, he who does not enter by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way (elsewhere, from some other quarter) is a thief and a robber.

AMP:But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep

AMP:The watchman opens the door for this man, and the sheep listen to his voice and heed it; and he calls his own sheep by name and brings (leads) them out.

AMP:When he has brought his own sheep outside, he walks on before them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice.

And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers

This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them

Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.

All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.

:I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly

:I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep

KJV:But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.

The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep

:I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.

As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.

And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

ESV:For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again.

No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings

KJV:And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?

Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?

And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.

Incase you are still wondering how best to know the fake pastor’s read this passage.

Is so mighty

Psalm 28 vs 1

Psalm 28 vs 2

AMP:The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).

There are 3 things thief comes to do in this context

1) To steal

2) To kill

3) To distroy

The thief here is the Devil

The first thing the Devil comes after in everybody’s life is the kill the relationship between you and your God.

For the devil the touch any other part of your life successful first he goes for you relationship with you God

So whenever you see yourself finding it hard to pray or study the scripture know that it is attack from the Devil

Note:

Devil doesn’t go for empty person

The next thing the Devil goes for is your joy

Read Joel 1:1-12

Read the 12th verse very well and see why joy/happiness is a key to your progress in life

So in all you do never allow anything affect your joy
