Shar,
when I was in the City of Peace, I asked about how we could know the true shepherds from the wolves in sheep's clothing. The Rider turned to us and said, " What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after th one which is lost until he finds it? And when he has found it,he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he comes home he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to thm, "Rejoice with me, for I hae found my sheep which was lost" I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one lost sheep that is found than over ninety-nine sheep that never went astray."
