Being part of God's family means being chosen and loved by Him, allowing believers to experience unity and fellowship.
Membership in God's family is a profound and transformative reality for believers. As conveyed through the sermon, God has purposed to elect a people for Himself—individuals who are brought into a loving relationship with Him through Christ. This adoption as sons and daughters is articulated in Romans 8:15, where it explains that believers receive the Spirit of adoption, affirming their identity as children of God. Being part of this family fosters unity within the body of Christ, as each member contributes unique gifts for the common good, much like the analogy of the body in 1 Corinthians 12:12-18. Hence, being part of God's family is not only a privilege but also a responsibility to serve and encourage one another in faith.
