Children of God receive numerous blessings including eternal life, faith, and the assurance of God's love and righteousness.
Being a child of God comes with profound blessings as mentioned in Romans 8. Children of God are given eternal life, the assurance of forgiveness, and a heart to love God (Galatians 3:26). Additionally, God reveals Himself to His children, allowing them to experience a personal relationship with Him, as noted in Luke 10:21. The Apostle John further emphasizes the extraordinary nature of this relationship, stating in 1 John 3:1, 'Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God.' This love and acceptance fundamentally transform the believer’s identity, granting them access to God’s goodness and grace.
