约翰福音 10:7 Meaning and Commentary

John 10:7

Then said Jesus unto them again
By way of explanation of the above parable, since they did not understand it:

verily, verily, I say unto you;
this is certainly truth, and what may be depended on as such, whether it will be believed or not:

I am the door of the sheep;
and of none but them; not of goats, dogs, or swine; none but sheep enter at this door; and all the sheep do sooner or later: Christ is the door to them, by which they enter into a visible church state, and are let into a participation of the ordinances of it, as baptism and the Lord's supper: no man comes into a church, at the right door, or in a right way, or has a right to partake of Gospel ordinances, but he that truly believes in Christ, and makes a profession of faith in him: Christ is the door of the under shepherds of the sheep; none are fit to be pastors of churches, but who first enter into a Gospel church at this door, and are qualified, and called, and sent forth by Christ: he is the door of the sheep, by which they are let into the presence of his Father, and have communion with him, and partake of all the blessings of grace; it is through him that sanctifying, justifying, pardoning, and adopting grace, are conveyed unto them, and they brought into the enjoyment of them; it is through him they have all their peace, joy, and comfort, and deliverance from, and victory over all their enemies; through him they have heirship, and a right unto eternal life, and that itself; for he is the door into heaven itself, through which they shall have an abundant entrance into it: and he is the only door into each of these; there is no coming to God the Father but by, and through him; nor to a participation of the blessings of the covenant, nor rightly into a Gospel church state, and to the ordinances of it, nor into heaven at last, but in at this door: and this is a door of faith and hope, and an open one, for all sensible sinners, for all the sheep of Christ, to enter in at; though it is a strait gate, the number being few that enter in at it; and those that do, though they are certainly, yet but scarcely saved; for it is through many tribulations and afflictions that they enter.

约翰福音 10:7 In-Context

5 羊 不 跟 着 生 人 ； 因 为 不 认 得 他 的 声 音 。 必 要 逃 跑 。

6 耶 稣 将 这 比 喻 告 诉 他 们 ， 但 他 们 不 明 白 所 说 的 是 甚 麽 意 思 。

7 所 以 ， 耶 稣 又 对 他 们 说 ： 我 实 实 在 在 的 告 诉 你 们 ， 我 就 是 羊 的 门 。

8 凡 在 我 以 先 来 的 都 是 贼 ， 是 强 盗 ； 羊 却 不 听 他 们 。

9 我 就 是 门 ； 凡 从 我 进 来 的 ， 必 然 得 救 ， 并 且 出 入 得 草 吃 。
