I (Jesus) am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. The hired hand is not the shepherd who owns the sheep. So when he sees the wolf (worldly problems) coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock (believers) and scatters it.
The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep. John 10:11-13.
But there were also false prophets among the people…In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping. 2Peter 2:1-3. Amen.
