How can one telll whether at the judgement he/she will be a sheep or a goat?
Continue to do Gods` word. Love one another, feed the hungry, give water to who is thirsty, visit the sick, do what God would do. Gods` sheep can hear his voice. God knows our heart and he know the righteous ones. We are all going to be judge up until our last day so I think God is the only one who determines whether we are a sheep or a goat.

We can tell by the life we live.First we have to acertain that we indeed have a personal relationship with God.Then we have to strive to live a righteous live and be good to all we come across.We have to love God with all our heart and mind, and to love our fellow human beings as much as we love ourselves

With our salvation through Christ, following a life of faithful servitude to Jesus, sharing of the immense joyful love we have through Christ with others, compassionately helping others, living a life where others can see that Christ lives within us and helping as many lost souls come to know Jesus.

Would you still be a goat if you did wrong things and changed your life by asking God forgiveness?

By the way we live our lives. Because God said when I was hungry you gave me to eat, when I was thirsty you gave me to drink now enter into the home of my Father. The love we share with each other. But God is our judge because many times in life we fail to do these things, he knows our hearts whether it is pure and true, he know our ways, he sees the things we do. We must realise that you can deceive man but you cannot deceive God. So we need to prepare ourselves for judgement day by living the life our Father wants us to live, be kind, tolerant, help the poor, the lame do it in peace and love, let it be reflected in our actions. Blessed be the name of the Lord, thank you Lord for delivering me.

Look at the way you lived your life. If you have always tried to look out for your brothers and sisters, and had their best interests at heart, then you will be the sheep. If you are greedy and self-serving, then you are a goat.

This is a simple question. For if you are a believer whom his goal is to achieve heaven you, yourself MUST know. Who so ever living in this world knows where he is going after death. Those of the sheeps are the children that did what their fathers requires of them to do, while the goat are the disobidents ones. So is easy to know when you are doing the will of God and that of the devil.

We thank God for his sufficient grace He granted to his children; many do not understand this thing some people may say is simple to know but am telling you right now many are blind by the devil and his agents; as we know, goat here symbolize the stubborn and rebellion children, while the sheep here symbolize the obedient children, faithful and just. And by the grace of God if we hold unto our faith to the end we shall be like those worth sheep but if we are rebellion and disobedient we shall be like those goats.

The Sheep and the Goats

"But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then the King will tell those on his right hand, 'Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry, and you gave me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in; naked, and you clothed me; I was sick, and you visited me; I was in prison, and you came to me.'
"Then the righteous will answer him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry, and feed you; or thirsty, and give you a drink? When did we see you as a stranger, and take you in; or naked, and clothe you? When did we see you sick, or in prison, and come to you?'
"The King will answer them, 'Most certainly I tell you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.' Then he will say also to those on the left hand, 'Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry, and you didn't give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink; I was a stranger, and you didn't take me in; naked, and you didn't clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn't visit me.'
"Then they will also answer, saying, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and didn't help you?'
"Then he will answer them, saying, 'Most certainly I tell you, inasmuch as you didn't do it to one of the least of these, you didn't do it to me.' These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."
