Who are Gods 'Chosen'?

[makesends]

Which way could that be?

He informs us whosever does the will of God the same is his brother .

The first born again of many .

Like all of dying mankind a flesh and blood person must be born again from above

God is not a man as us.

He was without sin. He died, undeserving of death, in our place. Completely different.

 

[Eleanor]

Hi Thanks
Eternal Spirit, the Father of all spirit life . He faithfully breathed his Holy Spirit life in Jesus the Son of man .The let there be and it was a good new creation
Hebrew adds some understanding
Hebrew 7:3 Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but "made like" (not as ) unto the Son of God; abideth a priest (not God as the father) continually.
The Holy Father was like (not as) if he was the Son.
Jesus having the one Holy Spirit of the one Father by which we can cry out Abba father ,
The unseen spiritual, born again seed, Christ It produces Christians the bride named after her husband Christ

The only begotten Son of God (Lk 1:31-32, 35) does need to be reborn of the Holy Spirit, he is the Holy Spirit (2 Co 3:17, Gal 4:6-7).

 

[Keiw1]

The Bible also does not say, "God is sovereign."

Psalm 73:28---Jeremiah 50:25---Luke 2:29

 

[Keiw1]

And they too are biased. There is no such thing as an unbiased person. That is my point. Your claim that x number of unbiased scholars translate it a certain way is a bogus claim.

1822-Abner Kneeland translated the NT, he compared the Greek to English side by side to prove to the world-a god is correct.

 

[Keiw1]

We are Born Again by the Holy Spirit, he is Gods witness......do you understand divine revelation?

Or are you only familiar with reading God’s word by your own abilities?

Reading will not make one’s spirit “ Born Again “....there is no instructions on how to become Born Again you can only know that in your heart/ spirit by divine revelation, Gods Witness His Living Holy Spirit...then what he testifies with our spirit, is backed up in the written word.

You must know God in one’s heart/ spirit, I hope you understand that?

The holy spirit is Gods active force, its not a living being.

Yes he is not ashamed to call us brothers, sisters and mother .One is our Holy Father not seen

Who said he was a Living “ being”?...

Oh my goodness....the Holy Spirit is Gods Witness , His “ Living “ Witness.


It’s not a Living being you say.

I say the Holy Spirit is a Living Spirit..who witnesses Gods truth to our heart/ spirit...something you seem to know very little about.

The Holy Spirit is Alive and Active...

As has been shared, scripture over and over refers to the Holy Spirit as He or Himself!
How can you be so wrong in the face of the clear word of God?
You are in dangerous territory, friend. Please reconsider…this is not good for you.

1 John 5:7-9

King James Version

​

7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son

Friend, I am not saying this is what is going on here, but what Jesus said about blaspheming the Holy Spirit should concern you. I am praying that you reconsider.

We are Born Again by Gods Living Witness His Living Holy Spirit.

How else would we know we are Born Again...by whose Spirit?

The Holy Spirit is Alive And Active ...without the Spirit we are none of His....He indwells our spirit permanently?

The Holy Spirit is Alive and Active in our heart/spirit.....he’s at work always in our heart/ spirit.

It is the Holy Spirit's job to produce Christlike character in you. The Bible says, “The Lord... makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image” (2 Corinthians 3:18).

You can’t read your way into God’s Kingdom....only His Spirit can bring our spirit Alive in Christ....that is by divine revelation....being Born Of God’s seed is a Living spirit birth....it’s not something that you can read into being.

It’s a supernatural act that only Gods Living Witness His Living Holy Spirit can perform....of course the natural man could never understand this.

Few on earth obey Jesus. Few on earth even know what he actually teaches to become Christlike. Thats why Jesus teaches--FEW will find the road that leads off into life.
