Jesus, was the Son of the Father's house and all of us the servants and slaves. The Son loved all of us who were the servants and the slaves of the house. He loved us as he loves himself. REAL LOVE. So Jesus purchased our freedom from the servant status and from all of our slaveries to sin and to Satan with His own precious blood. Therefore knowing of the GREAT PRICE HE WOULD PAY FOR US (For our freedom & Adoption), He said, whom the Son has made free is free indeed. Now we who are in Christ Jesus, we are now not of this world even as Jesus is not of this world-EVEN AS-EVEN AS- EVEN AS Jesus is not of this world(John 17:16). This also reveals to us that we are FREE INDEED even as Jesus is FREE INDEED for we who believe are all the sons of God in Christ. Note: The flesh and bone of Christ has the same exact everything (Freedom and Everything) as Christ their HEAD has. The body and the HEAD are ONE and it was God himself that made it so.
Our freedom was bought with a price. But the GOOD NEWS does not stop there. His Father took the love a step further; He adopted us -who were the slaves and servants and He adopted us as Sons of God to give Jesus many brothers and sisters as revealed in John 20:16-17..Common English Bible (CEB). In Christ Jesus we are now the sons and daughters of God of the same household of Christ. We are so loved by Jesus and the Father that they have together made us heirs of God and joint heirs with Jesus of all that the Father has (1 Cor 3:21-23).
Let's read some scriptures and see what they reveal.
After the Resurrection Event.
John 20:16-17....16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.”
She turned and said to him, “Rabbouni” (which means Teacher).
17 Jesus said to her, “Don’t hold on to me, for I haven’t yet gone back up to my Father. Go to my brothers and sisters and tell them, ‘I’m going up to my Father (Dad) and your Father (Dad), to my God and your God.’”
Now lets read 1 John 3:1-2... Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God (even the brothers and sisters of Christ): therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
The Great Adoption Scripture.
In the flesh we have earthen fathers, but In Christ our spirit is born of God, meaning also our spirits are the sons of God. We are spiritual royalty. Kings and Priest.
Galatians 4:4-7New King James Version (NKJV)
4 But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive THE ADOPTION AS SONS.
6 AND BECAUSE YOU ARE NOW SONS, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, by which we cry, “Abba, Father (Daddy)!” 7 Therefore you are no longer a slave BUT A SON, and if a son, then an heir of God thru Christ.
It is amazing who we are and what we are now in Christ. Oh like Paul said, there is such glory soon to be revealed in us (Romans 8:18-19). For I reckon that the sufferings/persecutions of this present time are not worthy to be compared to the glory that shall be revealed IN US.19) For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly awaits for the MANIFESTATION OF THE SONS OF GOD.
All the sons and daughters in Christ share in the reverence of the Risen Son of God and in this God and Jesus take great pleasure in. As it is written, He is not ashamed to esteem them as His brothers and sisters......Amen......deno......share freely.
