Hello All,
I thought it might be fun to post the terms used to describe the respective "sheep." "Royal" and of course "other." In a conversation below with Cheeky, she mentioned that she didn't see herself as being put down by those who call themselves the "anointed." I didn't either way back when. As I wanted to live on the earth, I was willing to be whatever it took. Now I see the names are so different as to be funny. So I decided to post some of the names used to describe each, odd being the Anointed (appropriate I thought), even being the "Jonadabs," I mean "ones with an earthly hope" who don't see themselves ruling as "Kings and Priests." If humility is a trait of christianity then the "other sheep" win hands down. Oh wait, they didn't make up these names. They weren't being humble, they were being humbled! Well, arrogance and self-glorification seem to be the hall mark of the "Faithful and Discreet Slave." Anyway, the names tell the story to me. I know I didn't find all of them, and I didn't use a third of the ones I found. Still this gives you the flavor of the dish being served up as spiritual food by "Christ's Brothers" the "Host of Heaven" to the "Famine Stricken Egyptians."
1. Host of Heaven
2. Famine Stricken Egyptians who sold themselves to Joseph
3. Apple of Jehovah’s eye
4. Sons of non-Israelite servants of Solomon
5. David’s Israelite warriors
6. Foreigners that are its farmers and vinedressers
7. Sons of the kingdom
8. Strangers within the gates of the organization
9. They that are wise
10. Mixed company that left Egypt with Israel
11. Big Trees of Rightousness
12. Alien residents in Israel
13. Israel of God
14. Gibeonites who sought peace with Israel (were cursed and became slaves)
15. Heirs with Christ
16. Nations that come out of darkness
17. saints (holy ones of saints)
18. Ebed-melech the Ethiopian
19. Joshua the high priest
20. Ten men who take hold of skirt of a Jew
21. Royal Sheep
22. Other Sheep
23. Body of Christ
24. Lot and his daughters
25. The Bride of Christ
26. Strangers that shepherd Israel’s flocks
27. Brothers of the King
28. "Sheep" who do good to King’s brothers
29. Angels sent to Lot
30. Hobab (brother-in-law of Moses)

Could you tell a difference?
