Gen 12:1 Now the LORD said to Abram, “Go from your country and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you”.
The serpent destroyed God Elohim’s creation through Adam; but the LORD YHWH restores creation through Abraham. While Adam was created by God, Abraham was called out by the LORD. Adam was created but not ‘called out’; Abraham was both created and ‘called out’. There are those who were just created by God only; but there are also those who were both created and ‘called out’ by the LORD.
The Greek word for the ‘called out’ is the ‘ἐκκλησία’ [ekklēsia] and the English word is the ‘church’. All people were created by God; but not all people were ‘called out’ by God. Those who were ‘called out’ belong to the Church of God. All human beings are people of God; but not all human beings are children of God. Only those who received and believed in Jesus Christ were given the right to become children of God (Joh. 1:12).
2 Cor. 6:17-18 “Come out from among them; And be separate… I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the LORD Almighty”
THE CALLED OUT – THE CHURCH. From Paulos Moloi. Stay blessed.
