Clear Proof that Jesus’ Flock is a “Little Flock” [podcast]


“Fear not, LITTLE FLOCK; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” Luke 12:32

You know, looking around us at this fallen world, namely in this late hour, it’s becoming ever more and more clear just how “little” the “flock” of the LORD is.

Question: But how do we know who’s truly part of our LORD’s eternal “flock”?

Answer: Didn’t Jesus tell us “Ye shall know them by their fruits” (Matthew 7:16).

Let’s widen the scope on this passage where Jesus tells us that His flock is little:

“But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you. 32 Fear not, LITTLE FLOCK; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. 33 Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth. 34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Luke 12:31-34 

The true and small remnant of Christ’s Heaven-bound elect are praying for and working to see His body equipped and the lost saved (Matthew 9:35-38; 28:18-10, etc.). Anyone not interested in and participating in the work of Christ, is not part of His kingdom.

“How is it that ye sought me? wist (know) ye not that I must be about my Father’s business?” Luke 2:49

Dare we claim to be Christ’s and yet not about the “Father’s business”?

What is the “Father’s business”? Christ’s Great Commission commands, put together, clearly points to two elements, two operations of His kingdom …

  1. Feeding His sheep by teaching His Word (John 21:15-17; Ephesians 4:11-12, etc.).
  2. Preaching the Gospel to every creature, the lost (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15, etc.).
