18 Jan 2026 - Freedom to be a child of God

Ben Bonython shares about Freedom in Christ, and why and how we can be a Child of God, how that outworks in our behaviour, attitude and faith.

• But to anyone who did accept him, he gave the right to become God’s children; yes, to anyone who believed in his name.  (John 1:12)

• For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.  (Rom 8:14)

• For you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus.  (Gal 3:26)

• Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has become a child of God.  (1 Jn 5:1)

• So now Jesus and the ones he makes holy have the same Father. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call them his brothers and sisters. (Heb 2:11)

• And this is God’s plan: Both Gentiles and Jews who believe the Good News share equally in the riches inherited by God’s children. Both are part of the same body, and both enjoy the promise of blessings because they belong to Christ Jesus. (Eph 3:6)
