Hello Brethren
I want to contribute to the question ( ARE WE GOD'S CHILDREN?)
Only those born of God are children of God. The Bible teaches that all humans are creatures of God. We all belong to Him because He formed us. We were made by Him and for Him. You are a child of God if you have believe & surrender your life to Jesus.
1 John gives us 3 ways that we can know we are God’s children.
- Is the inner witness of the Holy Spirit. “And the one who keeps his commandments resides in him, and he in him. And by this we know that he abides in us: by the Spirit whom he has given to us.” (1 John 3:24).
- Is grounded in the nature of God and our true belief in him. “Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God” (1 John 5:1).
- Is the fact that we are obedient to his commands. “Now this is how we can be sure that we know God: if we keep his commandments. The one who says, ‘I know God,’ yet does not keep his commandments, is a liar and the truth is not in him. But whoever keeps his word, truly in that person is the love of God brought to fulfillment. This is how we can be sure that we are in him: the one who claims to abide in God ought to walk just as Jesus walked” ( 1 John 2:3–6).
Thanks for listening
