Becoming
God’s Child
Many
people want to say that because God made people from the beginning
that we
are all God’s children. However, the
bible teaches us that because
sin entered into the world through the sin of
one man. (Adam) All men and
women are
born into sin and know not God. This is
why we tell people the
Good News
of Christ Jesus. God sent his only begotten
Son to die for our sins.
God loves us that much that he made a way for
people to be saved from the
judgement to come. He has given us the only way to be
saved. Jesus tells us
in
scripture that HE IS The WAY. There is a
children’s song called “One Way
and Only
One.” When we believe what the bible
says about Jesus giving his
life for
us. When we believe the Gospel of John
3:16 and believe in his resurrection.
Then our heart becomes alive unto God. Our heart, meaning, the very being of who
we are,
understands for the first time, that God has given us the only way of
salvation.
There is
nothing within us that is good enough to earn salvation. Without the salvation
that God
has offered to all, there would be no possible way to heaven for anyone.
Without
Christ, upon our death we would enter a hopeless tormenting hell that has
no
end. God loved us enough to make a way
for that not to happen. God’s not
willing
that any
should perish but that all should be saved.
He has provided the Way.
The
question is are you going his way or your own way. He tells us in his Word our
ways are
the ways of death but his way is to life eternal.

John17:3
And this
is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God,
and Jesus
Christ, whom thou hast sent
Proverbs 14:12 ¶ There is a way which
seemeth right unto a man,
but the
end thereof are the ways of death.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord
is not slack concerning his promise,
as some
men count slackness; but is longsuffering
to us-ward, not willing that any should
perish,
but that all should come to repentance.
Romans 3:23
For all
have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
2 Corinthians 4:3
But if our
gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
John 3:16
For God so
loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 1:12
But
as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons ( or daughters) of God, even
to them that believe on his name:
