In light of Last weeks' SS Lesson, I will post the question I present to my class........... When exactly does one become a Child of God? 

I know the answer and I know that the answer was given in the lesson, however, this does not always transfer over in our day to day witness to others.

In light of Last weeks' SS Lesson, I will post the question I present to my class........... When exactly does one become a Child of God?

I did not study your lesson, but we are adopted the moment God calls us His children. We become that not by what we do but by what He does, by grace and through faith. When He says let it be, it is so, and it is good.

1 John 3:1-2, 10
"How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when he appears,[fn1]we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is...This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not a child of God; nor is anyone who does not love his brother."

Our day to day witness is in how we treat others and shows if we are His child or not and can lead others to Jesus Christ, or turn them off and away from God.

But when exactly is that that He calls us His children?
