THE INTIMACY OF THE SHEPHERD | The Word Exposed with Cardinal Tagle (April 30, 2023)

THE INTIMACY OF THE SHEPHERD | The Word Exposed with Cardinal Tagle (April 30, 2023)
Today is the fourth Sunday of Easter, which is also celebrated as Good Shepherd Sunday. In today's gospel, Jesus describes the difference between the shepherd and thieves and robbers.
Thieves and robbers do not enter the sheepfold through the gate, but would climb over elsewhere. The shepherd, on the other hand, enters through the gate because the gatekeeper opens it for him, and the sheep knows him. They know and recognize his voice. Only his voice will they follow. Friends, Jesus is reminding us that first, the relationship of the shepherd and the sheep is rooted in their familiarity with each other.
And secondly, in order for the shepherds to truly fulfill their vocation to lead and care for the sheep, they need to pass through the gate, which is Jesus himself. Each of us is invited to become a shepherd, whether through formal means or not. And in our fulfillment of this mission to lead and care for others, do we follow the way of Jesus?

The gospel is proclaiming a scenario that christians should live within sheephfold

[@antoniocanoy2642]

That sheephfold are made up of the proscriptions and prescriptions of WORD that should be accepted as God

This gospel preach human race that living within the confines of the sheephfold is salvation. A thing mankind cannot always do.

Today is the Fourth Sunday of Easter.

[@antoniocanoy2642]

The reverend Cardinal has not made any exposure regarding the doctrinal maxim of the shephfold

[@antoniocanoy2642]

The intimacy of the shepherd is merely gossiping the gospel as what Cleopas and his companion did during their trip to Emmaus.This act prompted Jesus to say "Oh how foolish you are"

[@antoniocanoy2642]

An evangelist who does not expose the word regarding the sheephfold is climbing over elsewhere

[@antoniocanoy2642]

The Catholic's apostle'sCreed is the greatest and the worst gossip of the gospel

[@brtrrandelealcoranarcilla828]

Amen.
