MOST IMPORTANT
QUESTIONS IN LIFE
Some of the Most Important Questions in Life:
1. Did you choose to be born into this
world?
2. Did you choose the time of your birth?
3. Did you choose who your parents would
be?
4. Did you choose the place of your birth?
If you then did not make any
of these most important choices that belong to this earthly temporal life and
they were all made for you by God, why does anyone suppose that God will leave
it up to an individual to make the same choices when it comes to being born
again and having eternal life? If God made all of these important choices
pertaining to your temporary existence by Himself then certainly He will be the
one choosing:
1. The individual to become born again.
2. The time the individual is born again
3. The spiritual parents (The Triune God
and the Word) of that individual
4. The place that the individual becomes
born again
Which are the very
counterparts, spiritually, to the questions asked earlier about your physical
life.
And just as how we have to
learn of when we were born from our earthly parents, so is it that the
individual who God has made born again learns of his rebirth from God through
His Word, The Bible.
Here are just a few of the
verses that crystallize the facts above:
John 1:11 He came unto his own, and his own received
him not. 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: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the
will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
Jonah 2:9 But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice
of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the LORD.
Ro 9: 15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on
whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have
compassion. 16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth,
but of God that sheweth mercy.
La 3:26 It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the
salvation of the LORD.
Ga 1:15 But when
it pleased God, who separated me
from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace, 16 To
reveal his Son in me, ….
1Pe 1:2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.
