When God calls us, he calls us to a born again self in Him, which has the image of Him. I quote Rom.8:29-30:
"29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified."
That image of His Son God knows, if we have not that image God will say He never knew us. Thus we must have His image to be saved. And justification which is salvation is the reception of the born again self. As it is written in 2Tim.2:19 and I quote:
"Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, THE LORD KNOWETH THEM THAT ARE HIS. And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity."
Furthermore in Matthew 7:22-23 he says:
"22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I NEVER KNEW YOU: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."
Facebook friends having Christ's character or identity in us is having the experience of salvation. Thus beseech thee to abide moment by moment in the image of God's Son even to you passing in the Investigative Judgement by the mercy of Yahweh to God be the glory. Amen
P.S
Psalms 1:5-6
"5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
