3 Blessings

 ~ 3 Great Blessings of John 10:9 ~

Prolog  ~  If you are a true believer in Jesus Christ you have these three tremendous blessings—and many more! 

Salvation  ~  Jesus said, “I am the door.  If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.  The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.  I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.  ‘I am the good shepherd.  The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep’” (John 10:9-11).

“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9).  

Freedom  ~  Jesus said, “I am the door.  If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.  The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.  I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.  ‘I am the good shepherd.  The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep’” (John 10:9-11).

“Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water” (Hebrews 10:22-23).  “Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate.  Therefore let us go forth to Him, outside the camp, bearing His reproach” (Hebrews 13:12-13).

Sustenance  ~  Jesus said, “I am the door.  If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.  The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.  I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.  ‘I am the good shepherd.  The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep’” (John 10:9-11).

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.  He makes me to lie down in green pastures;

He leads me beside the still waters.  He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake” (Psalm 23:1-3).

Epilog  ~  This passage of Scripture (John 10:10-11) is the theme verse of the Abundant Life Now blog.
