Are we ALL Gods Children the answer may surprise you, Can you be Assured, you are Saved

Prepared and Researched by Sam Martino

First off, and right out of the gate, just because we hear people and media and ignorant clergy make a statement that, quote {we are all Gods children] doesn’t make it so.

Also We are not all made in Gods Image, only Adam was made in His image as well. Oh you may say wait a minute, that cant be true sure we are , Not according to the Word of God King James Bible. In Genesis, God made man in Our Image in His own image, the plural Godhead, Body Soul Spirit, but when Adam and Eve, bare Children, their children bare the Likeness of Adam, not God, Read Genesis 5:3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, and after his image; and called his name Seth:

So according to the Bible and not Tradition and Conjecture, we are Not All Gods Children We are Not all made or Created, in His Image, these two, are specifically and exclusively special events , for Gods special selection, The Church which is his Body and a Child of God is also not without needing clarity.

So lets see what the Bible [The Word of God] The King James Bible has to say which are the preserved scriptures in English for this last generation. In order to do this , we must go to the Scriptures and to the Book of John verses 41-47 to establish what is fact and what is fiction or tradition to see if those things were so.

1. Its NOT what Jesus taught
2. When the religious clergy of his day said to him quote; John 8: 41 We have one Father even God, They were in fact claiming him as Father they as his Children, these were Jewish Leaders.
3. But look what Jesus said to them which was devastating to them Verse 42 same book if God were your Father Yee would Love me.. for I proceeded forth and came from God, neither came I from myself, but he [God] sent me. verse 43, why do Yee not understand my speech, even because you cannot hear my word. verse 44, Yee are of your Father the Devil… and the Lusts of your Father Yee will do. There it is they were nor are we children of God until we are Born again.
4. Verse 47 same book John He that is of God [Children]Heareth my Words, Yee therefore hear them not, because, Yee are not of God…. obviously not his Children
5. This is crystal clear, Everybody is NOT a Child of God

There is only one way to become a Child of God and that is to be Born again of the Spirit and that’s verses 12,13 of John chapter 1 first chapter in the Book of John. The most religious people of Jesus day were NOT I repeat, NOT the Children of GOD..

To become a Child of God we need to Hear about Jesus, Experience the new Birth [Spiritually] see his Glory, and most of all Believe in his Death Burial and Resurrection and soon Return to Rule on His Throne .

When the New Birth happens to you one begins to see, you must confess your sins to Him and ask for his forgiveness and his Mercy, to escape his Wrath and the Hells Fires of which he prepared for the Devil and his Angels , not us, Hell was never intended for us, we make that appointment, when we reject him and the Gospel of Salvation. Think of all the times when you heard that Gospel during your lifetime, all the times you were being witnessed to. And you never once ever considered the consequences of that rejection. That is why it takes Faith to Believe the Gospel. But we must hear his Word, and we must have his Words, in the King James Bible.

We make that plea and he is Just and True to forgive us, we cannot go by our feelings of feeling Saved it is not a feeling .We have an assurance from Scripture. So how do we know we are Saved, first we have his trusted word,

1 Do you love him perfectly, that is with all your being you may say not sure that’s ok Do you Love the Biblical Jesus, the one described in the Bible , not pictures and Tv portrayals, etc. but the real Jesus of the Bible .Do you love him as you should. If you have these attributes and Affection for Him, That can only occur from his Spirit bearing Witness of himself to you. If a man love me , He will keep my Words, and you will Hear his Words and Read his Word, that is the beginning of his regeneration working in you through his Word. A very critical component, as it is His Words that are Spirit and Truth.

So you can now be assured that you are Truly Saved, not by Feeling Saved, no such thing our Feelings are not the determining factor. Here it is ……. I couldn’t Love him [Jesus Christ] unless… I was Reborn of the Spirit and I couldn’t be Reborn until the Spirit bared witness with my spirit. Don’t be nervous, don’t rely on your senses and feelings . It doesn’t matter how one feels, If you have been forgiven by Christ that is an Objective , If you have confessed your sins and God promised to Forgive them, then that settles that.

Let me give an example, IF one commits a Crime and goes to court and the Judge says , How do you plead, and one says, Not guilty cause he doesn’t feel guilty, is not proof of Guilty or Innocence. Objective truths of Scripture is what Jesus Truly Teaches and he Teaches complete forgiveness. If one Trusts in His teachings then you can be assured , that you are truly saved. There is much more on this topic but this should clear up the issue.
