Who is a child of God?

The true God is the God of creation. God created the heavens, earth and everything in it by the power of
His word. John 1:1-3 says, In the beginning (before creation) the WORD already existed. The WORD
was with God, and the WORD was God. He (WORD) existed in the beginning with God. God created
everything through Him (WORD) and nothing was created except through Him (WORD).Have you
noticed? , this scripture is referring to the WORD as a He as a person, that the WORD is GOD. This
WORD is a divine being with the same divinity as God, He (WORD) existed before creation, He is the
one through whom GOD the Almighty created everything. John 1:14 And the WORD became flesh
(meaning: the WORD which created all things turned into a human being-the
WORD transformed into a person with an earthly body) and dwelt among us. The
supernatural person who is completely the fullness of Gods WORD is Jesus Christ. Thus, if you believe
in God of creation then you have to believe in Jesus Christ. If you dont believe in Jesus Christ as your
Lord and savior, then its a lie if you claim to believe in God of Creation. It was the plan of God to give
someone who is His integral part so that through Him all men should be saved. Ephesians 1:22 God has
put all things under the authority of Christ and has made Him head over all things. This means that
any relationship between God and man has to be done through Jesus; therefore, salvation is in no other
but Jesus Christ alone. However, who is a child of God? ; A child of God is a Christian and a Christian is
only that person who is born again, how do we know that? John 1:12 -13 But as many as received him
(Christ), to them He gave right to become children of God who are born not of blood, nor of the will
of the flesh, nor of the will of man (thats just to say not biologically born of humans
natural way) but born of God (born of God-born of Gods word-born again).So if you are not born
again, you are not a child of God, you dont belong to God because God is Spirit and those who are His
children are Spiritual beings (people filled with the Holy Spirit).Its only a born again person who is filled
with the Spirit of God. It doesnt matter if you say you dont do bad things-that you live right, it doesnt
matter if you say you have never committed what you call big sins, you still need to be born again
because being born again is more than forsaking sin, but it is receiving the life of God into your spirit.
There is nothing good of you until you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour. There is
nothing we can do to earn our salvation but when we put our total trust in Jesus Christs atoning act for
us, then if our faith is genuine we are made righteous. Its all by submitting to His Lordship over our
lives, its by committing ourselves, our very lives to Jesus making Him the absolute everyday Lord of our
lives. When you are born again, your spirit is regenerated, there is a supernatural awakening of your
spirit, and the very life of God is imparted in your spirit. By this life of God in you, you would know in
every situation on the inside of your heart what is right to do by the help of the Holy Spirit. When you are
born again, there is a deep and intimate mutual relationship between you and God; you have a greatest
and deepest desire toward God and the oneness that comes when God fills you with the Holy Spirit
satisfies your deepest need. Once you say a prayer of confessing Christ as your Lord and savior, if your
faith is genuine from deep down your spirit, right there and then you are saved-born again. Then you
know that you know that you know that you are saved, that heaven is yours that you belong to God and
no one can convince you otherwise because no matter what, God gives you a witness in your heart that
you belong to Him. Only a born again person is a child of God.
