There is a clear distinction between being made in the image and likeness of God or, being born of God. No one has ever had a choice in these distinctions!
All mankind is made in the image and likeness of God, while those who are born of God were determined to be so "before the world was disrupted."
God is pleased to call those who are born of Him, His children, and our brother Jesus, delights to call them His body, the "Ekklesia," which He is building. While very few of these children are to be found in the religious system, the church (because they have been bought out) -- the vast majority are waiting patiently for the snatching away which will bring them into their heavenly allotment, which is encapsulated, "judging angels" and the restoration of the disrupted heavens and the still disobedient spirits.
All mankind is made in the image and likeness of God, while those who are born of God were determined to be so "before the world was disrupted."
The really good news is that whether you are in this eon, born of God or not, there is a confirmed plan for the total restoration of all things by our Father the Creator, so that ultimately to all things in heaven on the earth and below the earth He will be "All in All."
