Eph 1:5 “Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will.”
We neglect the gospel when we neglect our adoption and think that we're just a hired servant. The Father doesn't let us come to him on those terms. We'll either come as His adoptive children or we will stay with the swine. He won't let us earn anything from Him because there will be no boasting in His presence. It will either be that Jesus and His glorious gospel has the preeminence or we will go it alone. It requires only our faith in the gospel to foster a personal significant relationship with the Father, every choice we make either elevates human life or heavenly hope in the Father.
Spiritual adoption is the excellency and apex of God’s salvation, not our doing… HSAY
