Companions, Dividers, and God

Because it is Satan’s determination to destroy the church and kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ, wherever the Good Shepherd gathers his sheep the Devil puts goats, wherever the Lord God plants peace Apollyon plants division; but the cause of Christ is perfectly safe, because God our Savior is with us.

Only the Lord God knows the sheep from the goats; and only he can separate goats from the sheep. Only the Heavenly Husbandman, our Lord Jesus, knows wheat from tares; and only he can separate the tares from the wheat. But separate them he does and separate them he will.
