Jesus is God. He isn't made by God. We aren't chose because we are good enough. We are chosen
"All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being." (John 1:3)
We aren't chose because we are good enough. We are chosen because God cares for us and because He wants to demonstrate His mercy.
"as it is written, “T here is none righteous , not even one" (Romans 9:10)
"20On the contrary, who are you, O man, who answers back to God? The thing molded will not say to the molder, “Why did you make me like this,” will it? 21Or does not the potter have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for common use? 22What if God, although willing to demonstrate His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction? 23And He did so to make known the riches of His glory upon vessels of mercy, which He prepared beforehand for glory, 24even us, whom He also called, not from among Jews only, but also from among Gentiles." (Romans 9:20-24)
Be careful. We must get who God is from His word and not from our own "wisdom".
"He who gets wisdom loves his own soul; He who keeps understanding will find good." (Proverbs 19:8)
