Christianity teaches that Jesus is the only natural son of God; everyone else must be adopted. Yet once someone becomes a Christian, they immediately become a child of God. Being a child is a legal relationship--it means that we do not cease to be children when we behave in ways that are displeasing to the Father. It even means that God loves us as much as He loves His only natural son.

Additional scriptural references made in this sermon are: John 1:12; John 17:26; Romans 8:20-21; 1 Corinthians 13:12; John 17:24; Psalm 17:15.
