Abba, Father
from Calvary Baptist Church · host Dan Lashley
"If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home in Him" (John 14:23). When a person is "in Christ Jesus," he has been led by the Holy Spirit into a union which involves the Trinity. He is called by the Spirit, saved by the Savior, and declared righteous by the Father. To be "in Christ Jesus" (8:1) is to be "led by the Spirit" (8:14), who leads us to "cry out, Abba Father." Paul uses the Roman law of adoption to illustrate our new relationship with God the Father. To be adopted a child was brought into a Roman court, his former relationships would be dissolved, and the new father would declare the privileges of being joint heirs with the other children. Paul shows how life in the Spirit provides intimacy with the Father.
