Morgan, Clerk There are many different relig ions in the world, and there always have been, but there is only one way of salvation. “Jesus the Good Shepherd” tells, us about that one and only way; and in speaking of sheep and the shepherd He uses two different figures. “He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a jobber. But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.” In this figure He speaks of Himself, as the Shepherd, going in by the door and not, as thieves and robbers do, by some other way. The thieves and robbers of which our Lord is speaking are the false religions. They do not approach men by the God-ordained way, the only way of salvation, God’s divine ly provided door.- False religions, therefore, are thieves and cobbers of men’s souls. Offering men eternal life, they give them eternal death. But when the shepherd, entering by the door, calls his own sheep by name, “the sheep follow him for they know his voice. And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him.” own children, between .false ious teachers, Shepherd and Now the Lord Jesus changes the figure and imakses this tremendous , claim for Himself: “Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. All that ever came before Me are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not hear them, I am the door; by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved.” How many doors into heaven are there? It is a popular notion that there are many different ways of getting to heaven. A large and im pressive volume was published a few , years ago, of wide circulation con- , taining a report of a group of relig ious leaders, and entitled “Rethink- 1 ing Missions”; a dominant note run- 1 ning through this large volume was that “all religions are ways to God.” It contended that Buddhism, Moh ammedanism, Confusionism, Taoism, Shintoism and many other religions were all true ways of seeking and finding the one true God, and that Christian missionaries ought to rec ognize this, and not oppose that Christianity has anything of exclu sive or unique value to offer 'heath en lands. The Lord Jesus Christ, and the whole Bible, Old Testament and Nq.w, have a very different message. The Son of God, says that He is the door, and the only door, through which men can enter into salvation. The night before He was crucified He said: “I am the way, the truth and- the life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me” (Jan. 14:6). After Christ’s death and resurrec tion, Peter boldly proclaimed of Him: “Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is none other name under heaven given among, men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). And Paul gives the same truth by inspiration: “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus” (1 Tim. 2:5 . The Good Shepherd who Himself is the only door into eternal life was able to open that door only at the cost of His own life. “The thief com- eth,” He said, “to #teal, and to kill, and to destroy; I am came that they have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” But how is this possible? “The Good Shepherd giveth His life for the sheep.” The Saviour had to die, that ners might live. “I lay down life for the sheep.” That is the stery, the wonder, and the glory of the Atonement. There are three Shepherd psalms, all looking forward by prophecy to Christ as the only Shepherd olf souls Dr. Scofield, in his valuable Refer ence Bible, has the following illum inating note: The shepherd work of our Lord has three aspects: (1) As the Good Shepherd He gives His life for the sheept (John 10:11) and is, therefore “the door” by which “if any man enter in he shall be saved” (John 10: 9). This answers to Psalm 2. (2) He is the “Great” Shepherd brought DEATH OF MR' JOHN McFALLS .Sanatorium Sick Chil- requesting March 6 Highways True believers, , know the religions, and their Saviour.
