"I have, and I am sure you have also, hear people refer to all humans as being the children of God. It has become commonly accepted among many �religious� people. The fact is that; Only those who are born again in the spirit and have full faith and trust in Jesus and His gospel are the true Children of God." Jake, I don't know if you saw the comment somebody left me to this regard, saying that we are all children of God, and therefore "deserving" of His blessings. I had made the statement that I was thankful to Him mostly *because* I don't deserve His blessings, and I guess she took it as though my saying this was a self-chastisement, rather than a statement of giving glory to God. It would be hard for me personally to get an appreciation for just how all-loving God is, if I thought I deserved it. If we were "all" children of God, then what purpose would God have in our lives?

I'm so glad I'm a part of the Family of God. I've been wash in the fullness, cleansed by His blood, joint heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod, I'm so glad I'm a part of the family of God.

Amen Andy, not one person on this earth deserves His Blessings. For all have sined and come short of His Glory. I did see her comment and that might have been the seed that lead to that part of this entry. Your point is well taken on the worth of Jesus comeing to pay our debt. If it were possible to be joint heirs of our Father God then there would have been no reason for Jesus to die on the cross. Thanks Dixie, for the lyrics...
