Risen for my present.
Intro: Welcome back To our Easter series
A. Series Question:
· There have been a lot of civilizations/empires/peoples.
A lot of legends, myths and god’s.
*None have had the tenacity of the so-called myths in the Bible
· Especially… that a man came, called Himself God, let himself be crucified, and after 3 days He rose from the dead and we still talk about it 2000 years later.
B.
Last week Risen for my past
· We talked about the Event, the evidence, and the experience of the resurrection
· That he died and rose again so our past can be redeemed
· That we can experience today 2000 years later the resurrection and be made right with God
C.
This week Risen for my presence.
· God didn’t rise from the dead to throw us to the wolves.
· He didn’t Rise again so you could struggle through life waiting for that city to come keeping our heads down.
Just trying to get through.
I f you want to pick up last weeks Easter sermon you can go to myfw.church.
To day I want to talk about how the resurrection affects the life you are living now.
Jesus is speaking to the pharisees and is talking about the difference in his leadership and anyone else’s.
I say that because the word shepherd here is a metaphor for King since the time of King David.
If you look down at v24 they ask Him if he is the messiah the coming King.

I.
The Shepherd parable.
Jesus leadership
A. The true shepherd comes through the gate V1-10
· This is his contrast between His leadership and their leadership
· In , God condemns the failed leaders of Israel, who have stolen from the sheep, killed them and caused them to become scattered.
· God says that he will remove these hired shepherds and replace them with himself
B. I am the good shepherd who lays down his life V11-13
· He is not a hired hand and will not run when he sees a wolf coming.
· This is because he actually cares for them.
C. I am the good shepherd I know my sheep V14-18
· He says my sheep know me and I know them
· I lay down my life.
No one can take my life I give it voluntarilyV18.
I have the authority to pick it up again.
I want us to look at the v10 and grab a hold of a deep spiritual truth.
The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy.
My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.
D. The contrast is brutal.
· You religious leaders who will not go through the Gate which is Christ are the thieves and the want to steal and destroy the sheep.
· His purpose by contrast is to give them a rich and satisfying life.
He we have a glimpse of what Christ wants for our lives.
This life.
What his purpose is for our present.
He goes on to shar with them I lay down my life and take it up again for my sheep.
So they can enjoy my purpose for their presence.
What does Jesus mean by a rich satisfying life?
I have three things that I think he meant by it.
When you and I hear Rich and satisfying we think money.
At the same time, we know money doesn’t do either.
II.
Rich and satisfying Life
1 – Peace
A. The way of the warrior (Erwin McManus)
· You can’t be a warrior until you personally find peace.
I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me.
Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows.
But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”
Resurrection
Resurrection
· We can have peace in Him because he Loves us.
We are worth it to Him.
Worth what?
His sacrifice.
“You cannot give up on yourself when God considers you worth the fight.”
-Erwin McManus
· You can’t stumble out of it.
I’m holding it all together.
You have peace in me, and that peace is part of a rich and satisfying life.
B. Peace is hard sometimes.
How can we insure our peace.
So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death.
But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.
· This is tough.
We need to keep our eyes on Jesus and fill our mind with him.
This is what leads to life and peace.
· This is tough.
We need to keep our eyes on Jesus and fill our mind with him.
This is what leads to life and peace.
· He needs to be our focus
Jesus’ purpose for your life is peace, without peace you can’t have a rich and satifying life.
The next part of it is…
2 – Purpose
A. Without purpose our lives are blasé.
4 After he has gathered his own flock, he walks ahead of them, and they follow him because they know his voice
· We follow Him into the purpose in our lives.
B. What is our purpose / To be light, reflect His glory and be like Him
● Is that all????
● I feel like I’m further away now than I have ever been.
How can I ever live up to this purpose?
● The closer you get to God the further away you feel.
God presences makes you aware of your need.
