Am I a sheep? or am I a<br \/>\ngoat?<\/p>\n<div class=\"text_exposed_show\">\n<p>Now, it&#8217;s funny The Lord will use sheeps and goats to describe the separation in the Judgement. The more I reflected on this, the clearer the deep significance came to me.<\/p>\n<p>If you look at the two animals, you will notice a world of difference between them.<br \/>\nThe sheep is gentle animal. Nothing mischievous about it and the most remarkable thing you notice is their willingness to heed and follow instructions. If you beat a sheep from going to a place.. It never returns to the place. They are usually very neat and don&#8217;t smell&#8230; They are not destructive and usually don&#8217;t put themselves in harms way.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike the goat&#8230; Ewure in Y<a href=\"http:\/\/newsroom247.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/goat-and-sheep-friends.png\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-10420\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-10420\" src=\"http:\/\/newsroom247.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/goat-and-sheep-friends-300x225.png\" alt=\"goat-and-sheep-friends\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/newsroom247.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/goat-and-sheep-friends-300x225.png 300w, http:\/\/newsroom247.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/goat-and-sheep-friends.png 758w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>oruba. Very stubborn looking things with their small horns. They never heed your instructions. It&#8217;s where you don&#8217;t want them to go you keep finding them. What you don&#8217;t want them to eat, they keep finding how to go there. They smell, especially the very short ones. They like too much sex, chase after their she-goats even when she&#8217;s not interested. they fight each other and can be noisy.<\/p>\n<p>So why will people be classified as sheep&#8217;s and goat&#8217;s?<\/p>\n<p>Aren&#8217;t we? Think about it.<br \/>\nThe human spirit who Trust and obey the Words and instruction of his LORD and seeks to heed His every Commandments is like a sheep. Such a human spirit is gentle and childlike, trusting in his Master and very obedient.<br \/>\nBut you are a GOAT if you follow your self will and do thinks the way you like. The Lord says.. Don&#8217;t do this&#8230; And it&#8217;s that very thing you want to put your head and entire body into. Isn&#8217;t this happening to us. How we constantly ignore clear instructions and follow our own understanding. Aren&#8217;t we fighting each other, chasing each other?<br \/>\nAre you pure, childlike and beautiful like the sheep? Or are you smelly and naughty as the goat? This is the 87th Year into the Cosmic turning point.<\/p>\n<p>So what are you?<br \/>\nA sheep or a goat?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\" async=\"\"><\/script><br \/>\n <!-- www.deltanewsroom.com --><br \/>\n <ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-2163942495525027\" data-ad-slot=\"1411897411\" data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\/\/ <![CDATA[\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n\/\/ ]]><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just this last Saturday&#8230; I travelled to my home town for my late uncle&#8217;s burial.
