Adoption Part-9 || Pr. Gideon Byekwaso

This sermon by Pr. Gideon Byekwaso was preached in 2013 at Speckled Bird Tabernacle, Zzana, Kampala - Uganda Scripture Reading Ephesians 1:3-6 3     Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4     According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5     Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6     To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. Romans 8:18-23 18     For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19     For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. 20     For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, 21     Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 22     For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. 23     And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
