Last night the Lord woke me up three times,
to tell me that “We are all God’s children” is a colloquialism. It’s a common misperception, and it doesn’t tell the truth. It’s often used by people who identify as Christian, which just shows that most of them are walking in deception. And I used to be one of them. While everything we see is the creation of God, it does not mean that we all have His spiritual DNA. The scripture says that Adam has gone away, while Christ is here to stay. The first man was of the earth, the second man was from heaven. The first Adam became a living being; the last Adam, a life-giving spirit. Just as Adam was the first of the human race, so Christ is the first of those who will be raised from the dead. “For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive. But each in turn. Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him. Then the end will come, when He hands over the kingdom to God the Father after he has destroyed all dominion, authority and power. For He must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death. For He “has put everything under his feet.” Now when it says that “everything” has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ. When he has done this, then the Son himself will be made subject to Him who put everything under Him so that God may be all in all.” 1 Corinthians 15:22-28 So let us remember, “God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.” John 4:24 Now listen to what I have to say, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes the sin of the world away; “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son to condemn you and me. He sent His Son so that we might be saved through Him.” John 3:16 To all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. John 1:12 For in Christ Jesus we are all sons of God, through the gene of faith. Galatians 3:26 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. "The Holy Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs- heirs to the throne and fellow heirs with Christ, provided that we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. Romans 8:14-17 So as you can see, Not everyone is a child of God. According to the Bible, The only children of God are those who come through Christ. True love is not expressed through those who tell you what you want to hear. True love refuses to watch you die through the tickling of your ears. True love is what God has shown to us - by giving us time to make a life-giving choice. If you have never heard the gospel spoken in truth and love, then now is your chance to receive the Spirit of God. You must be careful not to twist the Word of God, and make it into something that sounds good - the devil is roaring about like a hungry lion and he likes to attack the minds of men through the thoughts of pride. “But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.” Luke 21:36 You must remember that Satan has been given reign over this world, until God’s appointed time when Jesus returns. At that time, the scripture says, “For there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.” Matthew 24:21-22 You see God is giving us time to figure it out. He is giving people time to make a turn about. Satan’s primary goal is to blind the minds of men, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 2 Corinthians 4:4 In the beginning, man was made in the image of God, but when he went against God, he became Satan’s pawn. God removed his Spirit from the heart of man, and sent him into the wilderness to walk all alone. But the Word of God is faithful and He became a Lamb. He sacrificed himself so that He could open the scroll. “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?” No one in heaven or on earth or under the earth could open the scroll or even look inside it. I wept and wept because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside. Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.” Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth. He went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who sat on the throne. And when he had taken it, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of God’s people. And they sang a new song, saying: “You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased for God persons from every tribe and language and people and nation. You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.” Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!” Revelation 5:2-12 So now you must make a choice. Do you believe that salvation ONLY comes through Christ? Do you believe that He is the final sacrifice? Do you believe that He shed his blood for you? Do you believe that He paid the ultimate price just to have you reconciled back to Him? Are you a true child of God?
