Jesus Christ made us know that He is the good Shepherd, and the gate of the Sheep(Jn. 10:7,11). He laid down His life for the sheep. We are the people and the sheep of his pasture.

Jesus Christ has set up Shepherd in the church to pastor the flock. The word Pastor is gotten from pasture which means to tend or feed. The church is the pasture field where the sheep come to graze. After resurrection, He confronted Peter three times with these words “if you love me, feed my sheep”. “Shepherd my Sheep”, “Feed my Sheep”(Jn. 21:15-17)

As Sheep of the pasture that we are, we are expected to abide under the wings of the Good Shepherd to abide under the wings of the Good Shepherd in total obedience and faith, for my sheep hears my voice “(Jon. 10;26-27), says the Good Shepherd. If as Sheep we decide to wander from the control of the Good Shepherd, there is the thief who comes to steal and kill and destroy”. But if we enter in by the gate-Jesus, we will come in and go out and find pasture. (Jn. 10:9-10).
