Adoption in Christ
from Houston's First Baptist Church · host Gregg Matte
Pastor Gregg shares truth from the book of Romans about our adoption in Christ. We don't have to make bad choices anymore, we can walk away from our sin and choose life over death. A true believer desires to willingly follow Jesus. We shouldn't come to the things of God and feel like He's twisting our arm. We are adopted into God's family, and now have a great relationship with Dad (Abba, Father)! We receive this fatherhood relationship through our faith in Christ. Christianity involves sacrifice. We must die to ourselves so that we can live to God. Our sacrifice is for His glory!
