John 1:12 (KJV) “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:”  – notice the phrase “to become” indicating a future event or ongoing process

Before you confirm your answer of #1 please take the time to read the following scriptures: Jn 1:29 ; Mt 6:12; 6:14; 18:35 (as refers to vs. 23-34); and Lk 11:4.  [It is clear to me that with the death on the cross Jesus paid the price for every sin of the world.  Then Jesus’s teaching in Mt chapter 18 clearly reveals that God handles sin differently for those in His family.  In fact it is such an important point that He taught us to remind ourselves of the new ‘rules’ for forgiveness of sins as a child of God every day as we pray the way He taught us to pray.]

Read Mt 26:7-13 and Mk 14:3-9 – pay close attention to Mt 26:13 and Mk 14:9 – both clearly say that JESUS said that what this woman did WOULD be told WHEREVER (and based on the Greek word used here WHENEVER) THIS GOSPEL is preached.  [My point? Since it was Jesus himself who made this statement it is evident that any message which is supposed to be THIS Gospel which does NOT mention her is NOT the THIS GOSPEL that Jesus intended to be preached.]

CONGRATULATIONS!  If you have truthfully navigated your way down the logic trail and ended up here, let me say I am glad you are my brother/sister in Christ.  In fact I would love to get the opportunity to tell you how excited I am that you are out there.  If you would like to send me an  email to introduce yourself I would be more than pleased!  Feel free to refer others to this logic trail in the hopes that it may just clear some points that are in the Bible that do  not often get talked about, but  in fact are vital points about our relationship with Jesus and God the Father.

Thank you again, and God Bless You.

 

 Let’s start by saying that you ARE NOT a child of God (you may be a potential Child of God), the creator of the universe.  Also, according to the Bible since you are not a child of God it makes you a servant of Satan, no matter what else you may think, the truth in the Bible determines our final end.  I can only hope that you will have opportunity to change your thinking and thereby escape the end that is currently your destiny.

If you think this answer is bogus, go back to the top and explore the ‘other answers’ you  could have given, you may find the Bible actually SAYS something different from what you were taught.
