How do we know that we are children of Abraham?

Answered in 1 source

We are children of Abraham through faith in Christ, not through ethnic or genetic ties.

According to Galatians 3:7, those who have faith are the true children of Abraham. This implies that being a child of Abraham is not based on lineage but on having the same faith that Abraham exhibited. In John 8:39-40, Jesus clarified that mere physical descent from Abraham does not suffice; rather, true children of Abraham will do the works of Abraham, which is to believe in God's promises. Thus, anyone who embraces the gospel and believes in Christ can claim their identity as a child of Abraham and heir to the promises made to him.
