THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS AND THE CHURCH SERVICES

December 12, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS AND THE CHURCH SERVICES: ENDEAVOUR TO FIND ONE NEAR YOU AND ATTEND!

What is CHRISTMAS?

This is the yearly commemoration and Celebration of God’s LOVE to mankind in the BIRTH of our – Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus – and His REDEMPTION CAUSE on earth for all mankind.

What is the CHURCH?

This is the voluntary gathering of people to FELLOWSHIP to enhance their common RELATIONSHIP in Christ Jesus with each other – and to WORSHIP and SERVE God WORTHILY and ACCEPTABLY – under a designated Shepherd – Pastor.

The service in the Church gathering highlights the CHRISTMAS:

In the MORNING service or at START of service – it is called the GATHERING or COMING TOGETHER – otherwise THE MASS Service – the Celebration and Commemoration.

“And let us CONSIDER one another to PROVOKE unto LOVE and to GOOD WORKS: 25 not FORSAKING the ASSEMBLING of ourselves together, as the MANNER of some is; but EXHORTING one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching” Hebrews 10:25.

And in the EVENING gathering or at CLOSING of service it is called BENEDICTION – a time of PROFESSING, DECLARATION, PROCLAMATION and ANNOUNCING to the FAITH in Christ Jesus stead – which is the act of PRAYER in endorsing and invoking the divine Trinity. And that is ascribed in this scriptural context and injunctions in terms:

“THE GRACE of the Lord Jesus Christ, and THE LOVE of God, and THE COMMUNION of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen” 2 Corinthians 13:14.

It’s good to know in the scriptural context and injunctions in terms are of the 2 Corinthians 13:14, what it thus signifies:

* The GRACE – which is, the ACTS of Christ.

* The LOVE – which is The ACTS of the Father God; and

* The COMMUNION (Fellowship) – which is The ACTS of the Holy Spirit.

These BENEDICTION ACTS are often said after this manner occasionally at most Churches gatherings as a declaration, affirmation, and announcement:

“May the GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ, the LOVE of Father God and the COMMUNION of the Holy Spirit be with you” and I add this phrase to it – and those you care about – even as in this Christmas. An Amen.

I therefore employ you to endeavour to attend to the CHURCH GATHERING services near you if there’s an opening of their door of services on Christmas day. Absenteeism is not an option when you know full well that:

“SELFISHNESS makes CHRISTMAS a burden while LOVE makes CHRISTMAS an INDESCRIBABLE celebration and commemoration of PEACE, HOPE, FAITH, JOY and GOODWILL to all mankind” Amen.

Blessed regards in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen” 2 Corinthians 13:14.

JESUS THE CHRIST: HE IS – THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS

December 9, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

JESUS THE CHRIST: HE IS – THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS – BEING COMMEMORATED AND CELEBRATED THIS DECEMBER!

“Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was JESUS THE CHRIST” Matthew 16:20.

CHRIST JESUS – He’s the REASON for the SEASON. He’s the reason for the commemoration and celebration. Outside Him there’s no authentic and genuine reason that can make the season to be efficacious.

For me, when you take Christ from ‘CHRISTMAS’ you have ‘MAS’ which means ‘MAN AT SELF’ while with Christ it means ‘MAN AT SUFFICIENCY’.

CHRISTMAS is a yearly commemoration and Celebration of God’s LOVE to mankind in the BIRTH of our Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus and His REDEMPTION cause on earth for the good and goodness of All mankind.

CHRIST means – The anointed one, The Messiah, The Saviour, The Redeemer and much more – The soon coming King; while the MASS means – to Celebrate, to observe and commemorate.

Therefore, in this Month DECEMBER, let us commemorate and celebrate Him, for He is indeed born in our hearts and in our being. His birth is the rebirth of:

*Peace and goodwill toward men

*Hope, Faith & Love for men

*Fellowship and Relationship

*Salvation for all mankind and more.

However, as wonderful as Christmas commemoration and celebration is, be it known that Christ is enthroned, and,

He is no longer:

* The babe in the manger

* The servant to death

* The limited one and

* The Christ on the Cross.

He’s now the:

* God on the throne

* Omnipotent- (unlimited, all powerful)

* Omnipresent – (ever present, everywhere the same time) and

* Omniscience (all knowing, all understanding and all wise).

May Christ be all above to you, this Day, this Christmas and this December. I pray you have a blessed celebration and commemoration in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name IMMANUEL” Isaiah 7:14.

“Now the BIRTH of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost . . . 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall SAVE his people from their sins . . . 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name EMMANUEL, which being interpreted is, God WITH us . . . 25 and knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS” Matthew 1:18-25.

“For unto us a CHILD is BORN, unto us a SON is GIVEN: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. 7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this” Isaiah 9:6-7.

“When Jesus came into the coasts of Cæsarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the SON OF MAN am? 14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. 15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the CHRIST, the Son of the living God . . . 20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was JESUS THE CHRIST” Matthew 16:13-20.

SOME TEN GOLDEN RULES I LOVE YOU TO OBSERVE – It will secure you in GRACE and BLESSEDNESS in this Christmas.

1ST RULE:

You shall PREPARE your soul for Christmas – Romans 12:1-2.

We need to PREPARE a room in the Inn of our heart for the Lord in this Christmas – Revelation 3:20; Luke 2:7b

2ND RULE:

You shall not over BURDEN the Sale clerk with your worries – Matthew 6:25-34 [note especially vs. 33 – the need to seek right].

We need not let the worry of gifts – Shoes, games, transport, groceries, clothing’s, jewelleries and other forms of shopping and shoppers, to weigh us down and get us into debt. More especially the BUY today syndrome for NOTHING to Pay in WORRIES with a heavy HEART and BURDEN LATER after the December and Christmas seasons are all over. BE wise – don’t be tricked by any sales outlet there.

3RD RULE:

You shall GIVE yourself with your gift – 2 Corinthians 8:1-5; 2 Corinthians 9:7-11; Psalm 49:6-9.

Give God your heart before your material gains and gifts: Give me your heart, the Lord requires first before anything. Your life is worth to God than your gift.

4TH RULE:

You shall not VALUE gift by their cost – Luke 21:1-5; Matthew 2:11.

The least expensive gift may speak LOVE and with great hearts than the costly. So, let your love expression and expectation be of the good spirited and heartedness that speaks graciousness and gracefulness of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

5TH RULE:

You shall not LEAVE [keep] Christ Jesus outside your Christmas – Matthew 2:13.

Joseph was with Christ Jesus on and in Christmas mood hence he could hear God of the plan of the enemy and cohorts – King Herod’s – against baby Jesus. Don’t let Christmas be used for evil work to you and your family – keep your being connected to the heavenly during the season and more so, after too.

6TH RULE:

You shall not ALLOW Father Christmas to replace Christ Jesus in your heart and that of your family – Ephesians 3:13-14; Colossians 1:27; Luke 2:11.

Some has put up some masquerade acts to display in devilish mood, terrorising and frightening people in the name of Christmas. Don’t get people hurt please.

7TH RULE:

You shall not FORGET and NEGLECT the needy – James 1:27; 2:14-20.

Christmas is a very good time to extend God’s love to you to the needy around you. For the have not will always be among us the scriptures says – Deuteronomy 15:11; Mark 14:7.

8TH RULE:

You shall not NEGLECT your Church of gathering for Fellowship and Worship – Hebrews 10:25.

What is the Church? It is the voluntarily gathering of people to fellowship with one another and to worship God in spirit and truth. The service in the Church highlights the Christmas. In the morning it is called MASS – Celebration and Commemoration while in the evening – it is called BENEDICTION.

9TH RULE:

You shall be as a LITTLE Child – Mark 10:15.

It takes a childhood heart to embrace the spirit of Christ birth called Christmas.

Hence it’s a time of childhood spirit and not childish attitude which we see on our

streets during this period.

10TH RULE:

You shall WORSHIP and give your heart to Christ – Matthew 2:11; John 3:16; Revelation 3:20; John 1:12.

Let Christ be at the top of your Christmas. Prepare and decorate your hearts much more to your house.

AND FINALLY:

SELFISHNESS makes Christmas a BURDEN but LOVE makes Christmas – PEACEFUL, LOVELY, GOOD WILL and JOYOUS in everyway.

“Now THE BIRTH OF JESUS CHRIST was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was ESPOUSED to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. 19 Then Joseph her husband, being a JUST man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily. 20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord APPEARED unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, FEAR NOT to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is CONCEIVED in her is of the Holy Ghost . . .” Matthew 1:18-25.

“18 Now THE BIRTH OF JESUS CHRIST was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was ESPOUSED to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. 19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily. 20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is CONCEIVED in her is of the Holy Ghost. 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. 22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name EMMANUEL, which being interpreted is, GOD WITH US. 24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: 25 and knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS” Matthew 1:18-25.

THIS DECEMBER – IS ALL ABOUT THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS

December 24, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER – IS ALL ABOUT THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS: LETS COMMEMORATE AND CELEBRATE HIM IN EVERYWAY!

“Now THE BIRTH of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost . . . 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins . . . 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name EMMANUEL, which being interpreted is, God WITH us. “ Matthew 1:18-25.

CHRIST JESUS – He’s the reason for the season. He’s the reason for the celebration. Outside Him there’s no authentic and genuine reason that can be efficacious. And He’s THE WORD, the GOD MANIFEST in humanity. The WORD that’s able to do wholesome division and separation, of the human spirit, soul and body respectively; and all creatures are laid bare before Him in doing life and living godly. He’s THE WORD that the Holy Angel’s harkened unto in life and grace. He’s the sent one of the trinity God, who came for humanity good and goodness and there’s NO CONTROVERSY of any sorts about Him..

For me, when you take Christ from ‘CHRISTMAS’ you have ‘MAS’ which means ‘MAN AT SELF’ while with Christ it means ‘MAN AT SUFFICIENCY’.

CHRISTMAS means – A yearly commemoration and Celebration of God’s love to mankind in the birth of our Lord & Saviour Christ Jesus and His cause on earth.

CHRIST means – The anointed one, Messiah, Saviour, The Redeemer and more; while MASS means – to Celebrate, to observe and commemorate.

Therefore, in this Month DECEMBER, let’s commemorate and celebrate Him for He is indeed born in our hearts and in our being. His birth is the rebirth of:

*Peace and goodwill toward men

*Hope, Faith & Love for men

*Fellowship and Relationship

*Salvation for all mankind and more.

However, as wonderful as Christmas commemoration and celebration is, be it known that Christ is enthroned. He’s no longer:

* The babe in the manger

* The servant to death

* The limited one and

* The Christ on the Cross.

He’s now the:

* God on the throne

* Omnipotent- (unlimited, all powerful)

* Omnipresent – (ever present, everywhere the same time) and

* Omniscience (all knowing, all understanding and all wise).

May Christ be all above to you, this Day, this Christmas and this month December. I pray you have a blessed celebration and commemoration.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And without CONTROVERSY great is the MYSTERY of godliness: God was MANIFEST in the flesh, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, SEEN of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.

“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were MADE by him; and without him was not any thing MADE that was MADE. 4 In him was LIFE; and the LIFE was the LIGHT of men. 5 And the LIGHT shineth in darkness; and the darkness COMPREHENDED it not . . .14 And THE WORD was MADE FLESH (HUMAN), and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:1-5, 14 Emphasis Mine.

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, THE WORD, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one” 1 John 5:7.

“Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, HEARKENING unto the voice of his WORD” Psalms 103:20.

“For THE WORD of God is living and active and full of power [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, PENETRATING as far as the DIVISION of the soul and spirit [the COMPLETENESS of a person], and of both joints and marrow [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and JUDGING the very THOUGHTS and INTENTIONS of the heart. 13 And not a creature exists that is CONCEALED from His sight, but all things are OPEN and EXPOSED, and REVEALED to the eyes of Him with whom we have to give account” Hebrews 4:12-13 Amplified.

“Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the PRINCE OF THIS WORLD cometh, and hath NOTHING in me” John 14:30.

“Howbeit we speak WISDOM among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the PRINCES OF THIS WORLD, that come to nought: 7 but we speak THE WISDOM of God in a MYSTERY, even the HIDDEN WISDOM, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 which NONE OF THE PRINCES OF THIS WORLD knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory” 1 Corinthians 2:6-8.

THIS DECEMBER – THIS CHRISTMAS: IT’S GOD’S LIGHT IN OUR DARKNESS!

December 18, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER – THIS CHRISTMAS: IT’S GOD’S LIGHT IN OUR DARKNESS!

“At MIDDAY, O king, I SAW in the way a LIGHT from heaven, above the BRIGHTNESS of the SUN, SHINNING round about me and them which journeyed with me” Acts 26:13.

Am absolutely delighted to know and equally inform you, that the Birth of Christ Jesus that brought about the reason for the season called CHRISTMAS – even This CHRISTMAS, was and is, God introducing LIGHT again into the world. The SON LIGHT of God that SURPASSED the SUN LIGHT of the human senses.

“For God, who commanded the LIGHT to SHINE out of DARKNESS, hath SHINED in our HEARTS, to give the LIGHT of the KNOWLEDGE of the GLORY of God in the FACE of Jesus Christ” 2 Corinthians 4:6.

It’s that SON LIGHT of God that Apostle Paul experience at MIDDAY. At Midday of SUN LIGHT, Apostle Paul saw and experience two lights – the SON LIGHT and the SUN LIGHT. And instead of the known SUN LIGHT, which supposedly should be at the full beam heights of the human SUN brightness, he saw the SON LIGHT beam on him, which was way beyond measure, that surpasses his known – Acts 26:13. It’s simply because JESUS is the SUN of RIGHTEOUSNESS. His presence dispels DARKNESS and ILLUMINATES beyond all known lights – Malachi 4:2.

I pray that the SON LIGHT light of God will shine in and through you in such a time as This CHRISTMAS, that every indication of darkness will be brought to light and surpass in everyway.

“But unto you that fear my name shall the SUN of RIGHTEOUSNESS arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall” Malachi 4:2.

I pray that you find an EXCEEDING GREAT JOY, as you let Jesus becomes your DAY STAR in each DAWN DAY as the SHEPHERD experience and was led towards Him by Him the DAY STAR in guidance at Christ birth – 2 Peter 1:19/Matthew 2:9-10.

May you have a DELIGHTFUL SON LIGHT CHRISTMAS.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“As long as I am in the world, I am the LIGHT of the world” John 9:5.

“For with thee is the FOUNTAIN of LIFE: in thy LIGHT shall we see LIGHT” Psalms 36:9.

“We have also a more SURE WORD of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a LIGHT that SHINETH in a DARK PLACE, until the DAY DAWN, and the DAY STAR arise in your hearts” 2 Peter 1:19.

“When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the STAR, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. 10 When they saw the STAR, they rejoiced with EXCEEDING GREAT JOY” Matthew 2:9-10.

THIS DECEMBER. . . THIS CHRISTMAS: BE CAREFUL OF THE CHOICE YOU MAKE IN EVERYWAY!

December 17, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER. . . THIS CHRISTMAS: BE CAREFUL OF THE CHOICE YOU MAKE IN EVERYWAY!

“Ye have not CHOSEN me, but I have CHOSEN you, and ORDAINED (ANOINTED) you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you . . . 19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have CHOSEN you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you” John 15:16, 19.

YOU ARE GOD’S CHOICE – HE HAS CHOSEN YOU. THEREFORE CHOSE WISELY AS GOD CHOSE YOU IN LIFE AND GODLINESS, IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.

To some, choice or to chose is so smooth and easy, but for those who knows and considers the consequence and end result of their intent in matters of choice and to chose, lots are put into considerations. And for an imminent decision with repercussions, it takes a deep thought in making a choice, knowing the effect of such choice needs to worth everything that might affect your today and tomorrow. For making a choice demands careful thinking through, pondering and meditations because it’s one’s life and all. This I found intrigued in Apostle Paul that worth noting in all the phases of our wanting to do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead in everyway.

“For to me, to LIVE is Christ [He is my source of joy, my reason to live] and to DIE is gain [for I will be with Him in eternity]. 22 If, however, it is to be life here and I am to go on living, this will mean useful and productive service for me; SO I DO NOT KNOW WHICH TO CHOOSE [IF I AM GIVEN THAT CHOICE]. 23 But I am hard-pressed between the two. I have the desire to leave [this world] and be with Christ, for that is far, far better” Philippians 1:21-23 Amplified.

You must know for sure that you are the product of your choice. The choices you make in life defines you. The friends you chose and keep will make and define you. Your attitude to your choice will determine your altitude. So, as God’s chosen one, you need to scripturally THINK through, PONDER through and MEDIATE through, before making a costly CHOICE in – THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS.

Therefore, I repeat pleading with you in God’s name in Christ Jesus, that in THIS DECEMBER . . . and in THIS CHRISTMAS, be very careful of the CHOICE you make – because it will define you in everyway, in your path of doing life and living godly in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

I admonish you now as in always, to choose God first, so that He may help you and together, makes sense of the good choices to define your today and tomorrow in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

I truly pray that you make your choice by the scriptures that you might by PEACE promise of God at Christ Jesus birth, you can live through every phases of your CHOICE without murmuring and complaining and questioning. For we WALK by FAITH and not by SIGHT – SENSES. 2 Corinthians 5:7. And Faith is of the WORD to overcome the world pressure and challenges. Romans 10:17; 1 John 5:3-5.

Shalom! Blessed regards in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH READING AND PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“This Book of the Law shall not depart from your MOUTH, but you shall MEDITATE in it day and night, that you may OBSERVE to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will MAKE your way PROSPEROUS, and then you will have GOOD SUCCESS. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go” Joshua 1:8-9 NKJV.

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you LIFE and DEATH, BLESSING and CURSING: therefore CHOOSE LIFE, that both THOU and thy SEED may LIVE: 20 that thou mayest LOVE the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest OBEY his voice, and that thou mayest CLEAVE unto him: FOR HE IS THY LIFE, and the LENGTH of thy days: that thou mayest DWELL in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to GIVE them” Deuteronomy 30:19-20.

“Now therefore FEAR the Lord, and SERVE him in SINCERITY and in TRUTH: and PUT AWAY THE GODS which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the Lord. 15 And if it SEEM EVIL unto you to SERVE the Lord, CHOOSE YOU THIS DAY WHOM YE WILL SERVE; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE, we will SERVE the Lord” Joshua 24:14-15.

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are TRUE, whatever things are NOBLE, whatever things are JUST, whatever things are PURE, whatever things are LOVELY, whatever things are of GOOD REPORT, if there is any VIRTUE and if there is anything PRAISEWORTHY—MEDITATE on these things” Philippians 4:8 NKJV.

“For we WALK by FAITH, not by SIGHT (SENSES)” 2 Corinthians 5:7 Emphasis Mine.

“So then FAITH cometh by hearing, and hearing by the WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not GRIEVOUS (IRKSOME, BURDENSOME, TASKMASTER, DIFFICULT, HARD WORK). 4 For whatsoever is BORN of God OVERCOMETH the WORLD: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the WORLD, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH the WORLD, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5 Emphasis Mine.

“But we are bound to GIVE THANKS ALWAY to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from THE BEGINNING CHOSEN YOU to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: 14 whereunto he CALLED you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ” 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14.

“But ye are a CHOSEN generation, a ROYAL priesthood, an HOLY nation, a PECULIAR people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath CALLED you out of darkness into his MARVELLOUS light: 10 which in time past were NOT A PEOPLE, but are now THE PEOPLE of God: which had NOT OBTAINED mercy, but now have OBTAINED mercy” 1 Peter 2:9-10.
