One of the criminals who were hanged there was hurling abuse at Him, saying, “Are You not the Christ? Save Yourself and us!”
But the other responded, and rebuking him said, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation?”
...
And He said to him, “Truly I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise.” (Luke 23:39?43) ...
Sheep’s hearing ability is developed that they run away by even a little rustling sound, but they understand and follow the voice of the shepherd who protects them.
Even if other people imitate the voice of the shepherd, they run away without being deceived.
The sheep who listen to the shepherd’s voice and follow it can live in peace at a place with plenty of water and grass.
We hear countless kinds of sound every day.
Among them, the only sound that gives us true life is the Word of God, the truth.
I hope that you will be led to the beautiful heaven by listening to and obeying the Word of God and also be blessed in all things on this earth.
“I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.” (John 10:11)
