What is the method of God's adoption?

Answered in 1 source

God's method of adoption involves being born of God through His grace, resulting in faith and new life in Christ (John 1:12-13).

The method of God's adoption is fundamentally grounded in divine grace and is not reliant on human effort or decision-making. According to John 1:12-13, those who believe in Christ are granted the right to be called children of God, as they are born not of human will but of God. This highlights the internal work of regeneration accomplished by the Holy Spirit, whereby individuals come to faith in Christ and receive their status as adopted children. It is a sovereign act of God that reflects His authority and grace, ensuring that believers are fully secure in their status as sons and daughters of God.
