Service According to John 21:17

But Chris brought up an interesting point.

And we're going to look at, because we need to possibly look at where our name came from.

We are Feed My Sheep.

And so it gets confusing because sort of in that we do have a farm now.

And then you go, we are about sheep.

Well, no, it's not.

It's the metaphorical sheep that Jesus would refer to in the goats and the sheep and all of this stuff.

So it is more along the lines of sheep is what humans are often referred to in the Bible.

Okay, so that's where our name came from.

It is of a scriptural basis, and we would say John 21, 17 is kind of the point of the discussion that our name came from.

So John 21, 17 is, and Jesus told him, and then feed my sheep.

So what we're going to do today is we're going to look, I understand, well, we kind of forget in the United States that the Bible wasn't originally written in English.

True.

Okay, so we tend to think, and then we now seem to think that the Bible was like originally written like in the newest form, the message form, or whatever the most make it into the modern day English.

And I'm not adverse to that, but it wasn't written in English.

Right.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

It wasn't even necessarily written at the get-go.

It was more of a spoken record.

That's right.

So it wasn't like somebody was walking around writing in English everything that Jesus said.

Now with it, I do believe what it says is true.

So we would have that.
