Rev. Dustin Beck, pastor at Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Warda, TX, and Rev. Michael Newman, president of the Texas District of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, join host Rev. Timothy Appel to study John 10:22-30. Though Jesus continues to face opposition in Jerusalem at the Feast of Dedication, He continues to call out to the Jews so that they might repent and believe in Him. In response to their request for a plain and bold answer, Jesus points to the works He is doing in His Father’s name. These works testify to the truth of who Jesus is. Though the Jews there do not believe because they are not Jesus’ sheep, Jesus provides the comfort to those who do listen to His voice—they are His sheep. He knows them, and He gives them eternal life that cannot be taken away. That eternal life cannot be taken away because it is secured by Jesus and His Father, with whom Jesus is one in the unity of the Holy Trinity. Jesus’ teaching in this text provides great comfort to us as Christians. “The Word Made Flesh”
