Tabernacle Corner SO THAT HE WHO RUNS MAY READ Conditional Security in John 10 How often do we hear the words quoted “I give unto sheep eternal life and they shall never perish.” As a matter of fact Jesus did not say this. His act­ ual words were: “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them and they follow me, and I give unto them eternal life, and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my Father’s hand,” John 10; 27-29. The words, hear, know, fol­ low and give in the Greek are all in the present tense and the literal translation of this pas­ sage is as follows: “My sheep are hearing my voice and I am knowing them and they are fol­ lowing me and I am giving unto them eternal life.” The metaphor is a very common Eastern scene. The shepherd knows all his sheep by name and if they keep on hearing, harkening or listen­ ing to his voice, when he calls them, and if they continue him, he fulfills his part and contin­ ued to lead them into life-giving pastures. Then no wolves or other wild beasts will take them from under the shepherd’s hand, but all the promises are condi­ tional. Surely this truth is very clear to any whose minds are free from prejudice. If the stub­ born sheep fail to respond to the shepherd's voice and wan­ ders away it is more than likely that that sheep will be either devoured or lost. One who was guilty of propa­ gating the insidious doctrine of once held said: from 'am so safely held. This is an improper illustration of the pas­ sage above. The metaphor is not a coin in the Father’s hand but fa sheep under the shepherd’s hand, and the sheep will never perish as long as it continues to hear his voice and keeps on fol­ lowing him. This passage of scripture is often quoted to sup­ port the claim of eternal secur­ ity and is the strongest passage used by these people. The safety and security of the sheep de­ fends upon the sheep listening to the shepherd’s voice and con­ tinually following him. If they 'do this their safety and security 'are assured, but if they wander 'away they are certain to perish, It is not the shepherd’s will that 'any should perish. He has power • to keep them and is willing to 'do so, but they must listen to his voice and follow him.
