"the way that mortal men are begotten by mortal fathers - the way you were by your father, the way your father was"?

John 1:12-13
12. Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God--
13. children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.

Some folks trust in the words of the LIVING PROPHET®...
 
 
 1 Timothy 4:9-10
  9.  This is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance
 10.  (and for this we labor and strive), that we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, and especially of those who believe.
 
  Acts 14:11-15
 11.  When the crowd saw what Paul had done, they shouted in the Lycaonian language, "The gods have come down to us in human form!"
 12.  Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul they called Hermes because he was the chief speaker.
 13.  The priest of Zeus, whose temple was just outside the city, brought bulls and wreaths to the city gates because he and the crowd wanted to offer sacrifices to them.
 14.  But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of this, they tore their clothes and rushed out into the crowd, shouting:
 15.  "Men, why are you doing this? We too are only men, human like you. We are bringing you good news, telling you to turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made heaven and earth and sea and everything in them.
 
 Romans 9:25-26
 25.  As he says in Hosea: "I will call them `my people' who are not my people; and I will call her `my loved one' who is not my loved one,"
 26.  and, "It will happen that in the very place where it was said to them, `You are not my people,' they will be called `sons of the living God.'"
 
 2 Corinthians 3:3
  You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.
 
 2 Corinthians 6:16
  What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people."
 
 1 Timothy 3:14-15
 14.  Although I hope to come to you soon, I am writing you these instructions so that,
 15.  if I am delayed, you will know how people ought to conduct themselves in God's household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.
 
 
Hebrews 3:12
  See to it, brothers, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.
 
Hebrews 9:14
   How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death,  so that we may serve the living God!
 
 Hebrews 10:31
   It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
 
  Hebrews 12:22-24
 22.  But you have come to Mount Zion, to the heavenly Jerusalem, the city of the living God. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly,
 23.  to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the judge of all men, to the spirits of righteous men made perfect,
 24.  to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.
