THE DOGS, THE GOATS, AND THE SHEEP.

in #steemchurch6 years ago

There are three types of human beings as Jesus groups them on earth!

Whoever you are, whatever level you have attained both in personality and qualifications, you are in one group among these three.

Judging yourself by your conscience, which group do you think you belong?

THE DOGS

These are people who refuse to receive the free grace of God purchased by the shedding of the blood of the only begotten Son of God!
You can argue as much as your intelligence can carry you but listen!
Matthew 7:6 "Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you."
Matthew 15:26 NLT
Jesus responded, "It isn't right to take food from the children and throw it to the dogs."

Philippians 3:2 "Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision."

Revelation 22:15 "For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie."

May be it is because you are in this group that everything is bypassing and eluding you! God does not honor dogs! He doesn't bless dogs!

THE GOATS

Matthew 25:32-33,41-46 NLT
All the nations will be gathered in his presence, and he will separate the people as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will place the sheep at his right hand and the goats at his left. "Then the King will turn to those on the left and say,

'Away with you, you cursed ones, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his demons.

For I was hungry, and you didn't feed me. I was thirsty, and you didn't give me a drink. I was a stranger, and you didn't invite me into your home. I was naked, and you didn't give me clothing. I was sick and in prison, and you didn't visit me.' "Then they will reply, 'Lord, when did we ever see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and not help you?' "And he will answer, 'I tell you the truth, when you refused to help the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were refusing to help me.' And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous will go into eternal life."

These are these religious shrines (prophelying) and casting both existing and non existing demons!
Making fortune out of the ignorant and the gullibles whose god is their belly! The pride themselves in the gifts of the holy spirit but lack the FRUIT of the spirit.

THE SHEEP

Matthew 25:33-40
[33]And He will cause the sheep to stand at His right hand, but the goats at His left.
[34]Then the King will say to those at His right hand, Come, you blessed of My Father [you favored of God and appointed to eternal salvation], inherit (receive as your own) the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
[35]For I was hungry and you gave Me food, I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink, I was a stranger and you brought Me together with yourselves and welcomed and entertained and lodged Me,
[36]I was naked and you clothed Me, I was sick and you visited Me with help and ministering care, I was in prison and you came to see Me. [Isa. 58:7.]
[37]Then the just and upright will answer Him, Lord, when did we see You hungry and gave You food, or thirsty and gave You something to drink?
[38]And when did we see You a stranger and welcomed and entertained You, or naked and clothed You?
[39]And when did we see You sick or in prison and came to visit You?
[40]And the King will reply to them, Truly I tell you, in so far as you did it for one of the least [in the estimation of men] of these My brethren, you did it for Me. [Prov. 19:17.]

I love your analysis of the different kinds of people as Jesus grouped them
