QUESTION OF THE DAY When Jesus talked of His other sheep could He have been referring to the saved souls in Abraham Bosom? I have lately been wondering about the other sheep. It seems logical to me that Jesus was referring to those souls waiting in Abrahams Bosom. Scripture tells us that they were given the good news from Christ Himself after the crucifixion. I know Mormons believe He was talking about the Americas but I have yet to find any evidence to support this theory. Am I the only one to think He was talking about preaching to the souls that waited for so long and did not have the opportunity during their lifetimes? John 10:16 ESV - 16 And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd. Mrs. Thorpes answer is In the question: you are asking if Jesus other sheep are the same souls saved in Abrahams bosom, the answer is no. You have combined two separate verses. The other sheep that Jesus referred to are the Gentiles. Acts 13:46 Abrahams bosom is a teaching story to show we must listen to the scriptures and prophets before we die or else we will forever be separated from God in hell. Luke 16:27-31 The dead are asleep in their graves until the last day when judgement occurs. Daniel 12:1-2, 13
