Are You a Child of God?

“…For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.” (Galatians 3:26)

Everyone is a creation of God, but not everyone is a child of God. This verse is addressed to Christians who had then, and who have now, strayed away from the simple gospel of grace and faith to the erroneous gospel of law and good deeds. It is not addressed to the unsaved except in the sense to tell them that they can not become Christians by any other way than faith in Jesus Christ. It is written to the churches of Galatia and therefore to all the saved in all churches then and now.

When a person is saved by the grace of God through faith in Christ Jesus he becomes a new creature. He is a changed person. Praise God for the simplicity of Biblical salvation.

I encourage you that if you think you are a child of God and a candidate for heaven because you were created by God or because you are, “keeping the law,” that you change your thinking and place your faith in Christ Jesus.
