The Privileges And Responsibilities Of Being A Child Of God

Becoming a follower of Christ, and finding my identity in Him, brings with it blessings that can be found in no one else.  It is a privilege to be a child of God.  But just like with my earthly father, I bear the image of my Heavenly Father, and I carry the name and reputation of my Heavenly Father.  I must be about my Father’s business too. Why?  Because God has entrusted the church, and that includes us, with His reputation.  I bear the image and the name and the reputation of my Father.
