Darby highlights the dual effect of Christ's ministry: drawing those who accept Him while exposing the hearts of those who reject Him. He contrasts the Good Shepherd's selfless love with the hireling's abandonment, affirming that true security and sustenance come from following Christ, who offers eternal life and protection. Ultimately, the sermon calls believers to recognize their relationship with Christ, the Shepherd who knows them intimately and secures their salvation.
