4/24/17 - Tuesday - God Will Rescue the Endangered Sheep- Ezekiel 34:1-10
The shepherds of Israel. The shepherd (kings) had misused the people and scattered them. This oracle applies to doctrine of individuals responsibilities to the rulers, who are also subject to God's laws. Wild beasts, Judah's attackers, especially especially Babylonia.
4/27/17 - Thursday - Pastor's Shepherd the Church of God - Acts 20:25-28
Accomplish my course ... testify, a premonition of marytdom. Overseers, Greek "bishops" the elders of verse 17. The Bishop is a Shepherd.
4/28/17 - Friday - Pastor, Tend My Sheep - John 21:15-19
The triple question is reminiscent of Peter's triple denial. According to tradition. Peter was marytdom under Nero under Nero of Rome. Each is to follow his LORD, regardless of others. Until Jesus come the second come.
