That is a wonderful parable..it is about eternal security NOT predestination and election

The Son belonged to the Father.He was always the son..he did not BECOME the son when he showed up at the door:>)

He wandered off and God was waiting for his RETURN .Eternal security..God is a loving Father ..note he did not put his son in the Kiln *grin*

So, anyway, ignoring SD, do you know why the shepherd carrys the lamb instead of letting it walk back under the guidance of the staff and rod?
