So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”

Romans 9:7-16
Neither are they all children because they are Abraham’s descendants. On the contrary, your offspring will be traced through Isaac.That is, it is not the children by physical descent who are God’s children, but the children of the promise are considered to be the offspring.For this is the statement of the promise: At this time I will come, and Sarah will have a son.And not only that, but also Rebekah received a promise when she became pregnant by one man, our ancestor Isaac.For though her sons had not been born yet or done anything good or bad, so that God’s purpose according to election might stand—not from works but from the One who calls— she was told: The older will serve the younger.As it is written: I have loved Jacob, but I have hated Esau.What should we say then? Is there injustice with God? Absolutely not!For He tells Moses: I will show mercy to whom I will show mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.So then it does not depend on human will or effort but on God who shows mercy.

John 8:33-41
“ We are descendants of Abraham,” they answered Him,“ and we have never been enslaved to anyone. How can You say,‘ You will become free’?”Jesus responded,“ I assure you: Everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.A slave does not remain in the household forever, but a son does remain forever.Therefore, if the Son sets you free, you really will be free.I know you are descendants of Abraham, but you are trying to kill Me because My word is not welcome among you.I speak what I have seen in the presence of the Father; therefore, you do what you have heard from your father.”“ Our father is Abraham!” they replied.“ If you were Abraham’s children,” Jesus told them,“ you would do what Abraham did.But now you are trying to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do this!You’re doing what your father does.”“ We weren’t born of sexual immorality,” they said.“ We have one Father— God.”

1John 5:18
-
Romans 9:1-5
I speak the truth in Christ— I am not lying; my conscience is testifying to me with the Holy Spirit—that I have intense sorrow and continual anguish in my heart.For I could almost wish to be cursed and cut off from the Messiah for the benefit of my brothers, my own flesh and blood.They are Israelites, and to them belong the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the temple service, and the promises.The ancestors are theirs, and from them, by physical descent, came the Messiah, who is God over all, praised forever. Amen.
