Rabbi Berkson begins with the disclaimer, “This teaching is about what Yeshua taught, not what He did.” He also claims that Yeshua didn’t teach Torah because His audience, the Jews, already knew it. Yeshua came with a specific message for a particular group of people, the Lost Sheep.• The Lost Sheep?• Intro• His sheep know His voice (John 10:1-5) • Who was Yeshua’s target audience? (John 10:6-10)• The “thief” has a different purpose (John 10:11)• A “hireling” runs away (John 10:12-13) • I know mine, and mine know me (John 10:14-15) • One flock, one shepherd (John 10:16) • Being one of His is your choice (John 10:17-28) • Non-stop choice making (John 10:29) • Who is the judge over blasphemy? (John 10:30-36) • If you do the “works”? (John 10:37-38) • They were right, everyone else was wrong (John 10:39) • Is Torah really that hard to do?• John the Immerser introduces Messiah Yeshua (Matt 3:1-12)• To fulfill all righteousness?
