D A Y of J U D G M E N T: Sheep versus goats?
Notwithstanding the size of the earth’s
population since Jesus left here thousands of years ago, on the day that he
returns on the Last Day there will be a herding of the earth’s population.
Before Jesus Christ there will be two groups:
The children of God, the “sheep” or the righteous on his RIGHT hand; and the
children of the devil, the “goats” or the unrighteous on his LEFT hand.
Jesus explains, saying:
“When the Son of man shall come in his glory,
and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his
glory; and before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them
one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats; and he shall
set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then shall the King
say unto them on his right hand, ‘Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the
kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world’” (Matthew 25:31–34).
“Then
shall he say also unto them on the left hand, depart from me, ye cursed, into
everlasting fire, prepared for the Devil and his angels. And these shall go
away into everlasting punishment. And these shall go away into everlasting
punishment: but the righteous into life eternal” (Matthew 25:41, 46).
