 Children of God by Christ spirit 

 

Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ. Galatians 4:7 

 

Anyone that believes and has surrendered His/Her soul to Jesus has been given the spirit of Christ. The spirit of Jesus is what make you an heir of Christ through the faith you had in Him. There’s a significant difference between a son and a servant. In the times of the Old Testament before Christ came to earth, God had often declared His elects as His servants and not His Children. Since Jesus has not come to redeem human back to God then, men and women were often called servants. But when Jesus came He broke this barrier and through His death for you and I He redeemed us to be sons and daughters of God by His spirit. John 1:12 ‘But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name’

The Bible compared Children of God to Isaac who came from Abraham by the promise and a servant to Ishmael who came from Abraham through flesh. Galatians 4:28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. Children of God are heirs to the promises of the spirit.

Dear reader, am glad you read all through. You’re the child of God and not servant if you believe and have surrendered all to Jesus. If you haven’t done that do so, so you can be called the child of God.

 

Conclusion:

By Christ spirit you are no longer a servant but a child and an heir to the promises of God our father.
