What does the Bible say about being a true child of God?

Answered in 4 sources

The Bible teaches that we are true children of God by faith in Jesus Christ, not through works or adherence to the law.

The Scriptures state that all who believe in Jesus Christ are considered children of God. According to Galatians 3:26, 'For you are all the children of God by faith in Jesus Christ.' This emphasizes that our status as God's children is based solely on faith and not on any ritual or law. Paul further clarifies that the law was a guardian until the coming of Christ. This indicates that the way to be justified before God has always been through God's grace and not through human effort or compliance to the law.
