Hi ,
I'm Alani ,Olubukola
Today is the 4th day of May, 2021.
I want to contribute to the topic "Are we God's Children"
It is not a thing that should be forced upon us.
To be God's children undergo a process and Pass some criteria that the Lord has laid upon us in the Bible.
Mark 5:44-45
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you.
Verse 45; That ye maybe the Children of your father which is in heaven for he maketh his sun to rise both on the evil and the good and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
If we study the verse 44 closely, in order to be worthy being the children of God, we have to learn these virtues.
For us to be children of our father in heaven, we have to be Selfless and not selfish.
We always have to ask for the good of others even those that are our enemies.
We must learn to love them.
How can we become the Children of God?
The criteria that you must know :
We have to be Selfless and not selfish
Love our enemies
Do good to all people as it was directed by our Lord Jesus Christ
Luke 6:35
Be Compassionate
Proverbs 3:5
Biblically Speaking, we must not lean on our own understanding.
We cannot serve God while we are leaning on our own understanding.
We need to deny one's self and get the understanding of God.
Thanks for reading.
