The Spirit of Adoption | Part 7 | Romans 8:15,16 | Pastor Thomas Mathew

#cornerstonetoronto #romans8 #Spiritofadoption #adoption The Spirit of Adoption is a doctrine that holds significant importance in the Christian faith. It is a biblical concept that refers to the belief that through Jesus Christ, believers are adopted into the family of God. This adoption is not a physical one but a spiritual one, and it has eternal implications for every Christian. In the book of Romans, the Apostle Paul writes extensively about the Spirit of Adoption. He explains that through faith in Jesus Christ, we become children of God and heirs to His promises. In Romans 8:15, Paul writes, "For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father.." This passage highlights the intimate relationship that believers have with God as their Father. The Spirit of Adoption also signifies that every believer is part of a larger family. As children of God, we are not alone in our faith journey. We have brothers and sisters in Christ who are part of the same family. This unity is essential in the Christian faith, as we are called to love and support one another. Moreover, the Spirit of Adoption also assures believers of their salvation. Through adoption, we have been given the Holy Spirit, which testifies that we are indeed children of God. As Romans 8:16 states, "The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God." This assurance brings hope and peace to every believer, knowing that their identity and future are secure in God. In conclusion, through adoption, believers have been given a new identity as children of God, a sense of belonging to a larger family, assurance of their salvation, and an intimate relationship with their Heavenly Father.
