Parable: “The Lost Sheep”
Reference: Matthew 18:10-14; Luke 15:1-7
Theme: The Eternal Value of Human Beings is Sacred to God
Context: Jesus using Little Children as an Example of Humility to Enter into the Kingdom of God
Matthew 18:12-14
“What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off? And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off. In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should be lost.”
