Are we all children of God?
This is something I have struggled with and searched the scriptures for.
The Word clearly states that Jesus is “The Only Begotten of The Father”. (John 3:18)
None has seen The Father but Him.
But God created all of mankind with His very thought, His breath.
How are all not children of God, even if they do not choose Him?
I realize we must be born again in order for one to receive their salvation, but I struggled with “Are all not children”…even the rebellious ones?
As I sat with the Lord this morning He cleared up my confusion.
I sat looking at this antique Madam Alexander Doll my father bought for Willow.
The creator thought this doll up in their mind.
They were created from their thought, and by their hands, and in an image but this doll didn’t come in and through the creator.
It’s a creation, not a child.
I realize this doll analogy is a gross oversimplification of God’s love for mankind but it is how He explained it to me this morning.
A parable of sorts.
We came from the very thought and hand of God, but only Jesus came in and through Him.
We were created in an image.
The only way we become children of God is Jesus in us. This is “to be born again”.
Jesus IN US gives us the right to His inheritance.
Jesus IN US gives us the right to come in His name.
Jesus IN US makes us children of God because The Only Begotten of The Father now dwells IN US.
This is why when we stand before The Father – HE WILL SEE HIS SON.
It is all of Him and none of us.
All of mankind is a creation of God.
Those who have Jesus IN THEM are now Children of God.
He is The Seal of Adoption.
Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm – Song of Solomon 8:6
He has given us His Name.
It is Him in us that gives us the DNA of Heaven.
It is Him.
ALL OF HIM.
He is EVERYTHING.
And because of HIM, I have the right to call upon ABBA FATHER.
“To all who did receive Him, who believe in His name, He gave the right to become children of God, who were born not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God”.
John 1:12-13,
“And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, ‘Abba Father! ‘”
Galatians 4:6:
