"All
those that are justified, God vouchsafed, in and for his only Son Jesus
Christ, to make partakers of the grace of adoption: by which they are
taken into the number, and enjoy the liberties and privileges of the
children of God; have his name put upon them, receive the Spirit of
adoption; have access to the throne of grace with boldness; are enabled
to cry, Abba Father; are pitied, protected, provided
for, and chastened by Him as by a Father; yet never cast off, but
sealed to the day of redemption, and inherit the promises, as heirs of
everlasting salvation. This is the nature of the divine sonship that is
bestowed on believers." J.I.
Packer, Knowing God, pg 206.
If you can understand this and believe
it, reject any teaching that disagrees with this you will go a long way
towards you living a stable joyful christian life. This is the problem
in the church today so many christians do not know these truths and are
not taught these truths. Go out and buy Packers book Knowing God its
life changing.
