True Fold of God

13 And now, the thing which our father meaneth concerning the grafting in of the natural branches through the fulness of the Gentiles, is, that in the latter days, when our seed shall have dwindled in unbelief, yea, for the space of many years, and many generations after the Messiah shall be manifested in body unto the children of men, then shall the fulness of the gospel of the Messiah come unto the Gentiles, and from the Gentiles unto the remnant of our seed—

14 And at that day shall the remnant of our seed know that they are of the house of Israel, and that they are the covenant people of the Lord; and then shall they know and come to the knowledge of their forefathers, and also to the knowledge of the gospel of their Redeemer, which was ministered unto their fathers by him; wherefore, they shall come to the knowledge of their Redeemer and the very points of his doctrine, that they may know how to come unto him and be saved.

15 And then at that day will they not rejoice and give praise unto their Everlasting God, their Rock and their Salvation? Yea, at that day, will they not receive the strength and nourishment from the True Vine? Yea, will they not come unto the True Fold of God [who is Jesus]?

16 Behold, I say unto you, Yea; they shall be remembered again among the house of Israel; they shall be grafted in, being a natural branch of the olive tree, into the True Olive Tree.

1 Nephi 15:13-16

Jesus is the True Shepherd and represents the True Fold of God. He is the Hope of Zion. He is the center heart of our future celestial community. He remembers each people. He calls all people to him. His sheep of every nation hear his voice and join themselves with him.
