Let me start by saying this is not a diss to my boys - “Sheep In Wolves Clothing”

Let me first explain the concepts. Sheep in wolves clothing is a term used in the gospel rap arena to refer to individuals that have experience the life change provided by a relationship with Jesus Christ that continue to dress in a similiar fashion as they did when they ran the streets. The purpose is to be able to be excepted and heard because you are not putting a barrior up. The dress and language is the same but the content is different. You still dress the part and talk the talk but it’s cleaner. The shirt is still over-sized and the pants still sanging, but the words you speak are giving praise to the Savior.

Then one might ask why do a say the zipper is stuck. I understand the purpose and the metaphor of the statement, but I also know the sheep has to spend sometime being a sheep or it loses it effectiveness. I believe there are some sheep out there in wolves clothing that have forgotten they are sheep. They are in too deep, their zipper is stuck; they need some help getting out of the wolves clothing and remember will they put the clothing on in the first place.

It’s similiar to an uncover cop to tries to influtrate a criminal organization at gets into the role to deep that they forget they are their to bust up the opperation, not make it stronger. Just as a cop has a supervisor they have to check in with to make sure they are on task, we have do to the same. We need to have a spiritual leader in our life to make sure we are not in too deep (Zipper Stuck).

You should be able to tell the difference between a sheep and a wolf by what they produce. What are the words coming out of their mouth? How do they treat people? I ask the people of faith to lift up the Sheep in Wolves Clothes. They are need and at some point in time we all will hit this mold if we are seeking to save thoses that are lost. We must also keep them accountable to the call, do what you can to support them in their walk and call them to account if you can speak into their listening. Most of all pray for them daily that the zipper does not get stuck and that they continue to spend time daily at the feet of the Shepard.

Be Blessed,
Visionary
