The Value of A Shepherd
Acts 20:29 (KJV)
[29] For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
God invoked the description of his followers as “Sheep”
Because sheep need a Shepherd to survive.
Both literal and spiritually!
A Sheep is “defenseless” against (Wolves) either in physical engagement or flight!
Without a Shepherd, Sheep are doomed to death because they are are not equipped for “Fight nor Flight”
Jesus is the Chief Shepherd
The words Pastor and Shepherd mean the same.
