SAINTS COMPARED TO SHEEP
SAINTS COMPARED TO SHEEP
" My Sheep hear my voice, &c.," Joh 10:27.
The Saints may be compared to Sheep in many respects: Sheep are harmless creatures, meek, sociable, contented with hard commons, very tractable, patient, fruitful, and very profitable, are made a prey to evil beasts, &c., upon all which considerations, and many others, the Saints are likened to Sheep, which is fully opened under the metaphor Flock, to which we refer you.
