The sheep:The sheep were out in the fields that night, while the shepherds watched over them. The sheep represent us, as children of our Heavenly Father, and Jesus Christ is our Good Shepherd. The sheep followed the shepherds to the stable to worship the newborn King.
Before Jesus was born, they would sacrifice the firstlings of the flocks. That was in similitude of the Only Begotten Son of the Father. After Christ's birth, this kind of sacrifice was no longer needed.
Let us be like the sheep on that night that followed their shepherd. Let us follow our Savior, Jesus Christ.
Let us be like the sheep on that night that followed their shepherd. Let us follow our Savior, Jesus Christ.
