The sixteenth free gift is that the believer is made acceptable to God (Eph. 1:6; I Pet. 2:5) The believer is therefore:
(a) Made righteous by imputation (Rom. 3:22; I Cor. 1:30; II Cor. 5:21; Phil. 3:9)
(b) Sanctified positionally (I Cor. 1:30)
(c) Perfected forever (Heb. 10:14)
(d) Qualified for inheritance (Col. 1:12)

(a) Foreknown (Acts 2:23; Rom. 8:29; I Pet. 1:2)
(b) Elected (Rom. 8:33 Col. 3:12; I Thes. 1:4; Titus 1:1; I Pet. 1:2)
(c) Predestined (Rom. 8:29-30; Eph. 1:5, 11)
(d) Chosen (Matt. 22:14; I Pet. 2:4)
(e) Called (I Thes. 5:24)
The eighth gift the believers are recipients of eternal life (Jn. 3:15; 10:28; 20:31; I Jn. 5:11-12)
The nineteenth the believers are recipients of a human spirit together with the Holy Spirit (Rom. 8:16; I Cor. 2:12; I Thes. 5:23)
The twentieth gift believer is the instant beneficiary of unlimited atonement (II Cor. 5:14-15, 19; I Tim. 2:6, 4:10; Titus 2:11; Heb. 2:9; II Pet. 2:1; I Jn 2:2)
