I love coming to John 10 because it's clarifying if it wasn't clear already and it was, it's

absolutely clear now.

And what Jesus is trying to bring to us tonight is pretty pivotal.

Because what he's saying, and if he is true, and you have to make your own mind up about

that, nobody can tell you, nobody can stand up here and say, this is what's true and therefore

this is what you're going to believe and therefore you're going to go do X, Y and Z, you have

to come to that decision for your life and I have to come to that decision for my life.

And I know in the house tonight that there are people all along that process of decision-making,

I know that.

And I just want you to know that that's awesome.

Some of you are here at the very beginning point and you're just thinking about God.

Maybe you thought about Him in the past and something went wrong, something broke down

and you just pushed it all to the side but you're coming back around it again.

Some of you are thinking it through and have been thinking it through and you're investigating

on your own pace and that's incredible.

And some of you are as sure as you can be sure and you're just moving and growing and

such an awareness and a relationship with Jesus and everybody in between and we love that

here.

I just want you to know that.

And the idea tonight is not that I would say, does say it the preacher and everybody would

go, well, that's what the preacher said, but the beauty of it is tonight that we have

the living word of God in front of us.
