The sheep gate, that's where it all begins. Those are the gates in which people go in and out of the city of Jerusalem.

Every so many yards is a gate. One of those gates is that sheep gate, and it's really probably one of the most significant.

In John chapter 5, Jesus healed the paralyzed man in the salome, right next to the sheep gate.

Jesus himself had to have gone through the sheep gate out into Golgotha.

Now, the Bible does not say that he walked through the sheep gate, but most likely, as he was

bleeding, disfigured, carrying the crossbar on his shoulders, he would have gone through

the sheep gate.

There is a significance why Jesus went through the sheep gate. There is a significance why Jesus went through that

sheep gate, because that sheep gate was the gate through which thousands upon thousands

upon thousands of sheep have gone through into the temple to be sacrificed for the people of God's sin.

And all of these thousands of sheep would basically represent, they are prefiguring of the Lamb of God,

the perfect Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.

And that is why he would have walked through that,

but also because it's the nearest to Gulgutha.

There is a reason why Nehemiah in his memoirs,

as he writes in this book, inspired by the Holy Spirit,

he says, and they started at the sheep gate.

Our healing begins at the sheep gate.

For us to have peace with God and peace with one another can never take place unless it is through the perfect Lamb of God who takes the sin of the world.

And let's all begin in Calvary.

There is no power to heal in rebuilding any of the broken walls of our society today, of our culture today,

of our homes today, and of our churches today,
