John 10:1-11

In the parable of John 10 we see Jesus ' attributes conveyed in 2 ways first He is The Good Shepherd. Next we see Him as The Door. Jesus' character is not limited to just these two descriptions.  We have the gatekeeper who is the helper of the Shepherd, a reference to The Holy Spirit.

We see ourselves as sheep and the importance of our reliability upon the ability to enter through The Door and follow The Good Shepherd.

Last we have the enemy whose purpose is to steal, kill, and destroy. The enemy is not just out to damage or steal the sheep, but to ultimately attack The Good Shepherd.
