Is it possible to be Chosen of God without reading The Scriptures
cheekie3:
All -
I was wondering that if the husband and father of a family knew the Truths of God and studied The Scriptures - and lived for and obeyed Jesus' Commandments - could his wife and children follow suit even though they themselves do not study The Scriptures.
Obviously there would be family discussions regarding the Truths of God.
I know we do not know who The Elect are until they are Resurrected in the First Resurrection.

Hi Cheekie3, this would be just my opinion, Faith without works is dead. I think God would hold that husband and father accountable for not sharing with his family, the truth. The door would be wide open for Satan to drag his family off to church. Ricky

Yes of course it is. Love your wife and kids. Share with them through your conduct and attitude. Pray for them. And don't worry. They're in Gods hands and they've already been chosen by Him to live in His kingdom when it's all said and done.

Wrong: There are the called and the chosen. First you have to be called and then chosen by God.
There is NOTHING you can do to be chosen. He chooses us. We have no choice in the matter.
He already determined who was chosen long before this world was formed over 4.5 billion years ago. It’s a done deal. But we don’t know.

Agreed. Completely and totally in God's hands. I think the chosen will be inspired to study the scriptures. They will hunger and thirst to drawn nearer to the Lord and this fire will consume them. The spirit drives you to study the scriptures. I just don't see someone being chosen and having zero interest in the scriptures. It the testimony of God to us. Our Father and Lord Saviour Jesus Christ.
