Be all blessed in the name of Jesus. I share with you a new publication oriented to remember that we are "Chosen by God" to announce to the world the glorious virtues of those who called us from darkness to its admirable light. The apostle Peter in his first epistle said:

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people acquired by God, so that you can proclaim the virtues of the one who called you from the darkness to his wonderful light (1 Peter 2: 9).

How interesting to know that the church of Jesus Christ is the new "Israel" that now includes the Gentile believers, who once were not a nation, nor had they obtained mercy.

From each race and nation, both you and I have been chosen by God to be part of the holy nation acquired by Him.

Now we realize the great value we mean for our God. We know that their original people are Israel, but they rejected Jesus and they passed on their salvation to us Gentiles.

God chose us through our faith in his Son Jesus Christ. We are a people acquired by God, which implies that the same rights and benefits centered on the promises of God for Abraham, now also, correspond to us. Thank God for his love and mercy in Jesus Christ.

We are a holy people, chosen by God; The best part is that we are a true priesthood. You and I, we are priests, that God chose to minister the sacred matters of his temple. You will say: What temple? The apostle Paul said: Do not be ignorant that you are a temple of the Spirit of God. This means that both you and I are a temple not made with the hands of men, where God had promised to live. Now, as priests, we have the responsibility to minister sacred matters, that is, to worship and praise our God.
