2 | is God the father of everyone ? | Gen 1:27 | Hank | 35818 | ||
jajoje: The answer is a resounding "YES"! Please read the first few chapters of Genesis, paying particular attention to Genesis 1:27. Then go to the New Testament, to the fourth Gospel, which is John, read the first chapter, and underscore verse 3. --Hank | ||||||
3 | is God the father of everyone ? | Gen 1:27 | zach† | 35881 | ||
jajoje: The idea that everyone is a child of God is simply not true. We are all God's by creation, but we are not all His children positionally. We only become His children positionally when we are born (or adopted) into His family spiritually. We all receive a physical birth, but we have not all received the spiritual rebirth (to be born again). We need to receive the second, or new birth. That is; to be born of the Spirit. John 3:5-6 (this is not a physical birth, but it means to be made alive spiritually) That which is born of the flesh (from earthly parents) is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit (God our Heavenly parent) is spirit. John 3:6 See also John 1:12-13 Jesus said you must be born again. John 3:7 Unless you are born again, you cannot enter the kingdom of Heaven. John 3:3-5 AS MANY AS ARE LEAD BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD THEY ARE THE SONS OF GOD. Romans 8:14 As many as are led by the spirit of Satan they are the sons of Satan. The Bible talks of two different spiritual fathers, both having children. 1 John 3:10 mentions the children of God, and the children of the devil. See also Acts 13:10 They who are children of the flesh, are not the children of God Romans 9:8 In Romans 9:22 and 23 we see that there are children of wrath fit for destruction, and children of mercy fit for glory. Ephesians 2:2 mentions the spirit that is now at work in the children of disobedience. The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God. Romans 8:16 I speak to my children, open wide your hearts. Don't be unequally joined together with unbelievers. What part has he that is a believer with an unbeliever. Therefore separate yourselves from the unbelievers and I will be a Father to you, and you will be My sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. 2 Corinthians 6:13-18 We are also told in 2 Corinthians 4:4 that; Satan has blinded the minds of them that do not believe.

Zach, it was my sense that the question was relating to the work of God the Creator; perhaps it was meant in the sense in which you made your response. In either event, it's good enough that the questioner has it from another perspective. --Hank | ||||||
