if you get the baptism of the Holy Spirit and then actually and factually do what the spirit tells you - then you are Sheep-
if you go to chruch and are religious - and follow your own leading - or church direction- you are a goat-

this is also why different people who don't know they are goats get the answer"i never knew you"
saint paul used Romans 10;8,9,10 for the application of faith alone-- but if you don't get the Holy Spirit- you stay deceived and a goat

or as Jesus said to the religious leaders
John 8:44-45

King James Version (KJV)

44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.

I understand what you're saying but that is not what the text says. Nowhere does Jesus explain the parable in that way. In fact, he doesn't explain the parable at all, which is telling, that is, that it is self-explanatory purely by reading what it says at first sight.

Also, those quotations are from John's Gospel and Paul, not from Matthew.
