"Other sheep [Gentiles] I have, which are not of this fold them
also I must bring [safely into the fold], and they shall hear my voice [be
regenerated]; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd." (KJV)
I was not a goat who change himself into a sheep by an act of free-will when
I was converted. I think I was a "lost" sheep that was "found" by a seeking
Shepherd and brought into the fold.
There is a great difference between a goat becoming a sheep and a
lost sheep being found by the Shepherd and brought into the fold." The lost
sheep in Luke 15 shows that the sheep did not become the Shepherd's property
when he found and rescused it, but rather, he would not quit searching until
he found the sheep because it was his sheep. It was a "lost" sheep that was
brought into the fold. JGR
