The door to the best kind of life is wide open to all. That good news is front and center today on According to the Scriptures with pastor Damian Kyle. We return to our study in the life of David. And in Second Samuel chapter twenty-three we have the account of David’s last words. Through it all we discover the keys to greatness. What’s so exciting about this is its availability and accessibility to us all.

As you get older one of the more difficult things to avoid is not becoming bitter. It’s hard because the older you get the more hurts and pains you’ll have to endure. But if we’re not carful the bitterness can rob us of our song of praise. It’s a “giant” of a battle. David faced that giant and overcame it too.

Today we’ll be continuing pastor Damian Kyle’s series on the 7 I Am Statements of Christ, found in John’s gospel. When Jesus declared, “I am the good shepherd,” He was communicating His care and concern for us. Just like what a shepherd does for a flock of sheep! Each of us need a good shepherd in life and Jesus is the only one qualified to do so. With that said, we need to be aware of hirelings, who have very selfish motivations.

There have been many notable rebellions in world history, some righteous, and some far from it. But no rebel pays so great a price, as the one that chooses to go against God and His people. Today on According to the Scriptures, we find Sheeba leading a great rebellion against David, and he sought to bring a division among God’s people. Though this was no doubt disheartening for David, he was faithful to God’s call, and persevered through this trial. Today we join pastor Damian Kyle in Second Samuel chapter 20, and learn not only the terrible price to be paid for those that choose to rebel as Sheeba did, but also how to respond when jealousy, selfishness, and pride drives your attackers.

Today we pick up where we left off in our series on the Life of David, the Making of a Psalmist. We see rebellion all around us... from the child who puts their foot down in disobedience to their parents, to the adult in prison who refuses to comply with the laws of the land. We even see rebellion applauded on T.V.., and in the music of the day. But unrighteous rebellion is far from encouraged in the Scriptures! In fact, as we’ll see, there are destructive consequences that come to those that would go down that road.

In Christ we are truly blessed beyond measure. It’s nice to know we don’t have to wander aimlessly through life, but we have the Good Shepherd to guide and take care of us. That’s a truth to cling to in troubling times like these. Today the plan is to cover John chapter ten verses 11-18. You might immediately recognize this as the place where Jesus refers to Himself as the Good Shepherd.
