2 Corinthians 6:18

“’And I will be father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me,” says the Lord Almighty.”

“Adopted in Christ”: What does it mean to you to be adopted by God?

This means that you and I were not in God’s family. Now, we have been “adopted in Christ,” which means that you and I are apart of God’s family now since He purchased us and adopted us – the purchasing price being Christ’s life.
