J.C. Ryle - My Sheep Hear My Voice and Follow Me

"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me." (John 10:27)

I am in the process of following a Challenge, A 28-Day Derek Prince Acts Challenge, where he had in several of his videos challenged others to read a chapter of Acts daily for 28 days, and ask this question with a Yes or No, Is there at least one supernatural outward visible manifestation for others to see recorded in this chapter, not just something inward as salvation of the heart? (And also record how many such supernatural acts manifested.) While I was studying up to Acts chapter 9 concerning Saul's conversion and Ananias, a disciple of Jesus, hearing the Voice of the Lord, calling him in a vision, then this Scripture came to mind, My sheep hear My Voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. While looking up the Scripture reference, I ran across this sermon of J. C. RYLE that you downloaded. Thanks! It is good to read and understand about sheep, because many of us have never been raised around them, to even know their characteristics, or that of wolves also. And I need much prayer and repentance for I do not hear His Voice speaking to me, anymore, like in the past.

@1952puddin Mat 5:5 Blessed are the meek, For they shall inherit the earth Acts 8:32He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; And as a lamb before its shearer is silent, So He opened not His mouth Mat 10:16 Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves 2 Cor 10:1 Now I Paul myself entreat you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, I who in your presence am lowly among you, but being absent am of good courage toward you

@1952puddin Phil 2:7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.
