TOPIC: Carnal Discontent, Not Caused By Others. Title: Safety For The Silly Sheep ! ! To the matter of the safety of the church, through the presence of the Lord, we may apply the following dialogue between a heathen and a Jew: "After the Jews returned from captivity, all nations roundabout them being enemies to them, a heathen asked a Jew how he and his countrymen could hope for any safety." "Because," he said, "every one of you is as a silly sheep compassed about with fifty wolves." "Aye, but," the Jew said, "we are kept by such a Shepherd as can kill all these wolves when he pleases, and by that means preserve his sheep." --- Adapted from Thomas Brooks.
