Had a most blessed and fabulous weekly seventh day Saturday Sabbath from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset. Attended the church hall and participated in the wonderful services. You must be born again. 1 Corinthians 15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that FLESH AND BLOOD CA NNOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Flesh and blood can not inherit the kingdom of God… o no? Did you know that Jesus Christ was born again? Yes, Jesus Christ is our example of what it actually means to be born again. Fabulous. Jesus Christ as a human was the first person to become begotten of God…wasn’t He? Hebrews 5:5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:34 For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. Resilience and strength Hebrews 5:8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; ===================================================================== Jesus Christ, after having been begotten of God, later was born of God. Jesus Christ was born of God by a resurrection from the dead and from then on was declared to be the very son of God with power. Jesus Christ was later born of God…wasn’t He? Romans 1:3-4 King James Version (KJV) 3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; 4 And DECLARED TO BE THE SON OF GOD WITH POWER, according to the spirit of holiness, BY THE RESURRECTION FROM THE DEAD: Colossians 1:18 King James Version (KJV) 18 And he [Jesus Christ] is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, THE FIRSTBORN FROM THE DEAD; that in all things he might have the preeminence. Resilience and strength Hebrews 12:3-4 King James Version (KJV) 3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. 4 Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. Hebrews 12:3-4 Amplified Bible (AMP) 3 Just think of Him Who endured from sinners such grievous opposition and bitter hostility against Himself [reckon up and consider it all in comparison with your trials], so that you may not grow weary or exhausted, losing heart and relaxing and fainting in your minds. 4 You have not yet struggled and fought agonizingly against sin, nor have you yet resisted and withstood to the point of pouring out your [own] blood. ===================================================================== 1 Peter 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us… You mean God now has begotten us who have received God’s Holy Spirit…? You mean that we can be begotten of God…the same God who beget Jesus Christ? Be of good cheer saints of the Most High God!!! God The Father is not your Step dad or Step Father. He is your Father…and Our Father. The word adoption is misleading. 1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not. We, in this life are begotten of God, and have to fight against sin every day. Striving against sin, every day, where could we go but to the Lord. We need more of God’s Holy Spirit every day. We need our Intercessor. We need our Mediator. We need our Jesus Christ…The hope of our salvation to help us until we are born into the kingdom of God. 1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; 1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. When we are born of God, in the next life, in the resurrection, we can not sin. It will be impossible for one that is born of God to sin at that time…because he or she has completed the developmental and maturing process and has become mature and complete, fully formed and ready for birth being born of God. Be of good cheer saints of the Most High God!!! When that seventh and last trumpet warning sounds in the Day Of The Lord, we will become born of God as baby gods…caught up in the clouds and will meet our Lord in the air. For those of us who have received God’s Holy Spirit of begettal, and are His offspring, God’s kingdom can’t come soon enough. Thy kingdom come. In the meantime let us take assurance in the following scriptures of what we are to God…then just maybe we can catch a glimmer of why God loves us as He does. Job 32:8 But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding. Romans 8:16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: We are not God’s adopted children. Adoption is misleading. We are God’s offspring… offspring of the Most High…which many of us do not get or understand. God help our understanding. Acts 17:29 29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God,… Psalm 82:5-7 5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course. 6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. 7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes. Isaiah 64:4 For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him. 1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: In I John 3:1-2, it is written, Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons (children) of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that when he (Jesus Christ) shall appear (returns from Heaven), we shall be like him (mankind is going to be on a higher plane in full radiant glory, having divine nature, and looking exactly like God); for we shall see him as he is. (We are family) HOW AWESOME AND FABULOUS IS GOD OUR FATHER AND OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST IN BRINGING MANY SONS TO GLORY!!! WHAT A FABULOUS, AWESOME, AND WONDERFUL METHOD AND PLAN GOD HAS MAPPED OUT FOR HIMSELF IN CAUSING ALL PEOPLES TO BE BORN AGAIN, THAT WILL BELIEVE HIS SON, JESUS CHRIST. JUST FABULOUS!!! God makes our life complete and so very happy...as we continue to develop and mature. Isn’t God good? Here is a kiss to God our Father and here is a kiss to Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Love you, God my Heavenly Father. Love you also, Jesus Christ who revealed unto us the Father, and gave your life for us...to be your Fathers children.

Psalm 149:3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp. Psalm 150:4 Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs. Luke 7:32 They are like unto children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept
