  Holy Spirit

 Recognizing His

Voice

John 10:4 - The gate keeper admits him, and the sheep hear his voice; he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. When he as brought them all out, he goes ahead and the sheep follow, because they know his voice.

Jesus did not say, "My sheep will know my book." It is His voice that we are to know.

Why the distinction? Because anyone can know the Bible as a book -- the devil himself knows and quotes the scriptures. But only those whose lives are dependent on the person of the Holy Spirit will consistently recognize His voice.

Observation

I must diligently study the scriptures, remembering that it is in knowing Him that the greatest truths of scripture will be understood.
