The Parable of the Lost Sheep [S02E25]

The Parable of the Lost Sheep is one of the parables of Jesus. It appears in the Gospels of Matthew (Matthew 18:12-14) and Luke (Luke 15:3-7). It is about a shepherd who leaves his flock of ninety-nine sheep in order to find the one which is lost.
Luke 15:4-7 “What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? And when he hath found it he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over 1 sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.”
"The shepherd who discovers that one of his sheep is missing does not look carelessly upon the flock that is safely housed, and say, “I have ninety and nine, and it will cost me too much trouble to go in search of the straying one. Let him come back, and I will open the door of the sheepfold, and let him in.” No; no sooner does the sheep go astray than the shepherd is filled with grief and anxiety. He counts and recounts the flock. When he is sure that one sheep is lost, he slumbers not. He leaves the ninety and nine within the fold, and goes in search of the straying sheep. The darker and more tempestuous the night and the more perilous the way, the greater is the shepherd's anxiety and the more earnest his search. He makes every effort to find that one lost sheep."

LUKE 15:7 SAYS THE LOST SHEEP USED TO BE ONE OF JESUS SHEEP BUT GOT LOST. IF THE SHEEP WAS ONE OF THE ORIGINAL 100, THEN HE BELIEVED IN JESUS AND WAS SAVED AT ONE TIME BUT GOT LOST OR "FELL AWAY". THEY HAD TO REPENT, AND WHEN WHEN THEY DID HEAVEN REJOICED. THIS PROVES ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED FALSE.

Very nice however if you would take a moment to read Luke 15 there's no mention of the one sheep returning to the fold. Think about it's a Salvation parable, the 99 didn't know they were lost, the one did. They only celebrated the one.
