“The Shepherds Of The Flock Doomed To Slaughter”

After Zechariah 9 spoke of Yahweh’s shepherd-King coming to Zion, followed by a description of God’s regathered people living safely in a world where wrongs have been righted, the just rewarded and the evil punished (ch. 10). Chapter 11 strikes a jarring note. It warns of a flock doomed to slaughter for whom Yahweh has no pity. God’s flock needs good shepherds and sometimes he judges them through giving them the leaders they deserve. The flock of God will always need shepherd-leaders who will lead them to Jesus the good shepherd, feed them with his words and protect them from the danger posed by imposters and wolves.

The following aspects of a worship service are included as a suggested guide to worshipping as a household for Sunday 20th September, 2020
