That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are regarded as descendants (Romans 9:8).
What a privilege to be a child of God! One is not a child of God because of the color of skin, the amount of money, power or beauty that is possessed. One is not a child of God because of apparent fulfillment of the good works of the Old Testament Law. One is a child of God because of faith in Christ. That is the promise of God . . . for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation (Romans 10:10).
What a person believes changes his life. If a person believes and there is no life change, does he really believe?
Our Father's Blessings,
