One in Christ
Galatians 3:26-4:7
Sons of God
Bee's Thoughts:
It's so sad that though Christians are suppose to be one in Christ, yet there are so many divisions amongst them. Christians can be against Christians or even hurt each other knowingly or unknowingly.
Christians are no different from non-Christians as long as they do not live according to the word of God which says,
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' 31The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these." (Mark 12:30-31)
Dear Lord,
I know it pains Your heart to know that Your Children are not one as You and the Father is one. I pray that You will forgive us and help us to love You with all our heart, soul and strength and to love our neighbours as ourselves. Help us to be one in Christ, Lord.
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
Sons of God
26You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, 27for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Galatians 4
1What I am saying is that as long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate. 2He is subject to guardians and trustees until the time set by his father. 3So also, when we were children, we were in slavery under the basic principles of the world. 4But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under law, 5to redeem those under law, that we might receive the full rights of sons. 6Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, "Abba,[a] Father." 7So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir.
