BORN NOT OF … HUMAN DECISION / JOHN 1:13

(KJV) John 1:13

Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

This verse reveals two truths:

1. Birth into Christ’s family is a spiritual matter that requires a life transformation that only God’s Spirit can accomplish (John 3:5-7). It has nothing to do with physical conception and birth, which results from human effort alone.
2. It was not God’s duty or obligation to offer us salvation through Christ’s sacrificial death for our sins. However, God did take the full responsibility to bring salvation to all of humankind. It was God’s own love, compassion and grace (undeserved favor, kindness, mercy and spiritual ability) that provided the opportunity for us to receive forgiveness, new life and an eternal relationship with Him (John 3:16; John 17:3).
