Are you born of God?

Jesus plainly tells us that to be saved and have eternity in heaven, we must be born again. In 1 John we are also told about being born of God and that there is a definite sign that tells us that we have been born of God:

1 John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God.

LOVE! When we can love others it is a sure sign that we have born again. Why is this? In case you haven’t noticed in our own power some people are unlovable in our eyes. But when you realize God loves a dirty rotten sinner like ourselves then we learn we can love others by the power supplied by the Holy Spirit! That is so awesome!

So are you born of God? Look for the evidence...loving others!
