Today's Scripture: It was the time of the feast of Dedication in Jerusalem. It was winter, and Jesus was in the Temple walking up and down in the Portico of Solomon. The Jews gathered round Him and said, 'How much longer are You going to keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us openly.' Jesus replied: I have told you, but you do not believe. The works I do in My Father's name are My witness; but you do not believe, because you are no sheep of Mine. "The sheep that belong to Me listen to My voice; I know them and they follow Me. I give them eternal life; they will never be lost and no one will ever steal them from My hand. "The Father, for what He has given Me, is greater than anyone, and no one can steal anything from the Father's hand. The Father and I Are one." --John 10:22-30 There is something blissfully archaic about our Gospel lesson for today with its reference to sheep and shepherds. Sheep-talk is whimsical and romantic, but it also may seem quite irrelevant. Unless you are one of the few people who has perhaps worked on a farm or business which dealt with sheep, they may appear in your mind--as they long had in mine--as fluffy, white little animals spending their lives out grazing in some ideal bucolic scene. For those with a bit more knowledge, sheep may be referred to as rather stupid animals. They are easily distracted and gifted with minimal problem-solving ability. They also tend to be rather dirty and smelly, much of the time. Given that view of sheep, I always marveled that so many pastors chose to refer to their congregation as "my little flock!" But I discovered another way of looking at sheep. Most of the negative information about sheep can be traced to cattle ranchers, who do not like them because they are not cows. Cows are easier to herd. Cowboys get behind them, crack whips, or make noise, and the cattle move forward. That does not work with sheep. If you do that, sheep will run in circles. Sheep cannot be driven; they need to be led. They will learn to trust a leader and will go anywhere their leader goes first. Sheep need their shepherd to guide them and, if things get dodgy, to rescue them. Jesus understood this unique relationship between the sheep and the shepherd. He knew that while all sheep may look the same to an outsider, a good shepherd knows his sheep individually. Certainly that was what He had in mind when He told that story about a shepherd leaving ninety-nine sheep to search for one that had gone astray (cf. Matthew 18:12-14; Luke 15:3-7). Likewise, Jesus identifies a good shepherd as one who truly cares for the welfare of his sheep, even to the point of being willing to lay down his life for them (John 10:11-18). Jesus would have us understand that this is the nature of God’s deep and persistent love for every one of us. But sheep existed then--and exist now--in a world of danger as well as nourishment. I find it interesting that the Evangelist John makes a specific reference to the weather in this passage: "It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple...(10:22)." John was not a meteorologist, so I believe he is referring to the spiritual climate expressed by those who were opposed to Jesus and His message. The wind-chill factor of hostility and endless criticism from the religious leaders in Jerusalem cut Jesus and His disciples to the bone, blasting them with the cold air of ridicule and resentment. Into this frigid atmosphere, Jesus spoke those beautiful words that compared His followers' love and trust for Him to that wonderful relationship between the sheep and their shepherd. “My sheep hear My voice”, Jesus said. “ I know them, and they follow Me. I give eternal life to them. They will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of My hand" (John 10 27-28). You can count on that, Jesus says. Yet Jesus is here surrounded by those hostile to Him and His message. They demand that He "tell them plainly" whether He is the Messiah or not. This demand is not motivated by an honest desire to get to know Him better--they are implacably hostile to Him. They are ther
