The Spirit which bears witness with yours spirit, that you are a child of God

Man has suffered alienation from God. Sin it is, has caused a separation between God and man, and broken the relationship. Where his descendants are born estranged from God. Born without affection towards Him.

But ever since we were born, learning , gaining knowledge and understanding , and as our awareness grows, God has been spiritually prompting us to get to know Him. He intimately sparks the imagination with awe and wonder through divine inspiration. Despite sin’s curse on the world, life is seen as good from when God created it, and called it so. Seeing small glimpses of His glory in creation.

So one day we could make the conscious effort by an informed choice to want to be reconciled back to Him. He then sends His only begotten Son for the propitiation, atonement( at-one-ment)of sin. God was in His Son Jesus Christ, reconciling the world back unto Himself. For whoever believes on Him through faith can be brought back into a relationship with Him.

Receiving the spirit of adoption. Where the recipient of His grace sees themselves beloved of their loving Heavenly Father. And they see themselves as His son or daughter. They become His, and He becomes theirs. No longer alienated from Him. Due to the change of heart by His love. There’s a complete change of attitude. Attitude in respect concerning the heart’s incentive to God. Loving God because He first loved us. Obedience is willingly joyful, and eagerly ready to His will. Our righteousness is not our own, but comes from Him.

And songs of praise springs forth effortlessly from the heart. As a personal expression of our love to Him.  

Conclusion: “God is found in a heart transformed by love.” John Wesley
