But the Elect/Chosen

[beloved57]

Now by nature all men have this one thing in common Eph 2:1-3

And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;


² Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:


³ Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

However the Elect of God, Chosen in Christ before the foundation of the World Eph 1:4, even though by nature as others are 1. Dead in sin #2 walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air #3 we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; #4 were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

Now heres what distinguishes the Elect Chosen from the non elect reprobate, even as children of wrath as others, the elect/chosen had been:

⁵ Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved)


⁶ And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:


⁷ That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

The elect as dead sinners, while children of wrath, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; having their conversation in the lusts of our flesh,

They were quickened together with Christ and were saved by Grace !

Amen ! The Elect / Chosen in union with Christ Him Eph. 1:4-7 that God Loved John 3:16, His Vessels of Mercy Rom. 9:23, are born into this world, by nature children of wrath as others, and dead in sins Eph. 2:1-3; the same ones exclusively which were saved according to God's Purpose and Grace 2 Tim. 1:9 and were quickened together with Him / In Him out of a spiritually dead state into New Spiritual Life when God raised Him from the dead: Quickened out of unbelief and enmity against God.

Col. 1:21-22

21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled

22 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:

So when the Elect /Chosen are born in time, in sin, they are already Justified / Righteous before God, but are unaware of it until they are made Alive Spiritually in New Birth.

1 Pet. 1:3
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

Rev. 20:6
Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

But the natural man cannot receive this Gospel Truth 1 Cor. 2:14 !

Now if folks are never born again in their lifetime, it proves that they never had a part in the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ 1 Cor. 15:1-4, and shall remain in unbelief and partake of the second death:

Rev. 21:8
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
