1 Peter 1:16Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
English “Be ye” emboldened in 1Peter 1:16 was translated from Greek verb 1096 ginomai that subjectively and generically means to create what one wants pursuant to what one needs to fulfill an objective exemplified by Acts 9:15 “But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel”. English “chosen” and “vessel” emboldened in Acts 9:15 were translated from Greek feminine noun 1589 ekloge and Greek neuter noun 4632 skeuos respectively. If you are confused that Greek feminine noun 1589 ekloge that was 1 time translated into “chosen” and 6 times into “election” referring to the male apostle Paul it is because in English feminine implies gender but the reason Greek is an inflected language is because masculine is indicative of the performer of the verb’s action and feminine indicative of the grammatical object receiving the action performed. Back to the task at hand: Greek feminine noun 1589 ekloge is the noun form of Greek verb 1586 eklegomai that was translated into “chosen” in John 6:70 referring to the 11 apostles after the demise of Judas Iscariot and Acts 9:15 refers to the 12th apostle Paul, thus proving that when you see the English bible words “us” “we” “our” “ourselves” and “us-ward” the bible writers are referring only to God’s “seven thousand” “chosen” “elect” “election” “the sons of God”. Greek neuter noun 4632 skeuos is God’s implement, a human earthen vessel that God fills with what God needs to bring God’s will to fruition. As if that was not a sufficient impediment to pride in one’s self God’s “seven thousand” “chosen” “elect” “election” “the sons of God” can not know if they achieve “the first commandment” Jesus defined in Matthew 22:35-38 and Mark 12:28-30 until they take their last flesh breath. They know they are in “the race that is set before us” in Hebrews 12:1-8 but can not know if they are among God’s “seven thousand” “chosen” “elect” “election” “race winners” “the sons of God” until they take their last flesh breath. Finally, God alone performs the action of Greek verb 1096 ginomai that was translated into English “should be married to” in Romans 7:4 “Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God”. Matthew 19:5 says “And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh” 1Corinthians 6:17 says “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit”. Greek verb 1096 ginomai is insightful emboldened in 1Corinthians 10:6-7 and 15:54 2Corinthians 5:17 Philippians 2:15 and 3:21 Hebrews 12:8 and 2Peter 1:20-21 “Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted” “Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play” “So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory” “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” “That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world” “Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself” “But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons” “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation” “For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost”. I learned a great deal of God’s truth following God’s 2Timothy 2:15, 19-22 directive and studying every Greek word in each verse containing Greek verb 1096 ginomai. It was most helpful to understand that Greek verb 1096 ginomai was translated into English “be fulfilled” in Matthew 5:18 “For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled” that the world’s 4,351 religions use to justify their hateful judgment but factually documents that God’s “seven thousand” “chosen” “elect” “election” “the sons of God” shall cause “all” “to come unto the knowledge of the truth” during the latter days of this earth age but especially during the “thousand years” between this earth age and the eternal age that follows “And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God” “Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.”
English “holy” emboldened in 1Peter 1:16 were translated from Greek adjective 40 hagios that was 161 times translated into English Holy and 61 times into English Saints. God has already proved the 12 apostles and bible writers are among God’s “seven thousand” “elect” “election” “the sons of God” but the fact is I can’t think of any New Testament Bible heroes who are not among God’s “seven thousand” “elect” “election” “the sons of God” including the “Saints” and those who are “Holy”. When I say “Saints” I am not talking about human beings who were proclaimed Saints by the world’s 4,351 religions I am talking about God’s Saints and those God has proclaimed Holy being “seven thousand” “chosen” “elect” “election” “Holy” “Saints” “the sons of God”.
