Hebrews 13:20-21 New International Version (NIV)
Benediction and Final Greetings
20 Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, 21 equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
The sheep, His sheep, My sheep are all of 'the sheep.' You can not be of the sheep unless you believe and only those who are the sheep will follow Christ.
As much as some might want all people to be the sheep, scripture says
'that great Shepherd of the sheep' , not 'the great Shepherd of His sheep. '
There is such a thing as the goats who do not believe, and the sheep who are the believers. If your a sheep then you belong in the flock of Christ.
