Shepherding Reminders of Wolves in Our Midst

Perhaps you recall God’s words of warning through Jeremiah of false prophets…”1 "Woe to the shepherds who are destroying and scattering the sheep of My pasture!" declares the LORD. 2 Therefore thus says the LORD God of Israel concerning the shepherds who are tending My people: "You have scattered My flock and driven them away, and have not attended to them; behold, I am about to attend to you for the evil of your deeds," declares the LORD. 3 "Then I Myself will gather the remnant of My flock out of all the countries where I have driven them and bring them back to their pasture, and they will be fruitful and multiply. 4 I will also raise up shepherds over them and they will tend them; and they will not be afraid any longer, nor be terrified, nor will any be missing," declares the LORD” (Jer 23:1-4). In midweek Bible study we’ll give some “Shepherding Reminders of Wolves in Our Midst,” as we also rejoice in the Good Shepherd of the sheep. We thank Him as well for graciously providing His undershepherds who drive off the wolves, while drawing the sheep into the safety of the fold.
