Sons of God through faith
The apostle Paul writes,
"You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. Gal 3:26,27.
One commentary I read said,
“The Greek word huioi (sons) is a legal term used in the adoption and inheritance laws of first century Rome. As used by Paul here and elsewhere in his letter this term refers to the status of all Christians, both men and women, who having been adopted into God’s family, now enjoy all the privileges, obligations, an inheritance rights of God’s children.”
So what the apostle Paul is making clear is that all who put their faith in Christ Jesus are children of God.
This is a great honour. Something no one asked for, but never-the-less God through Christ Jesus offers us.
The apostle John stating,
"Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God." John 1:12,13.
Are you willing to accept the saving grace that comes from God through Jesus?
Please think about it.
