1 John 3 (NIV)
3 See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God!
And that is what we are!

Romans 8:14-16
14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. 15 For you did not receive the spirit
of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adopNon as sons, by whom
we cry, Abba! Father! 16 The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children
of God.

been called according to his purpose. 29 For those God foreknew he also predesNned to be
conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the rstborn among many brothers and
sisters. 30 And those he predesNned, he also called; those he called, he also jusNed; those he
jusNed, he also gloried.

Romans 8:28-39
31 What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against
us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us allhow will he not also,
along with him, graciously give us all things? 33 Who will bring any charge against those
whom God has chosen? It is God who jusNes. 34 Who then is the one who condemns? No
one. Christ Jesus who diedmore than that, who was raised to lifeis at the right hand of
God and is also interceding for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall
trouble or hardship or persecuNon or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?

Romans 8:28-39
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am
convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the
future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creaNon, will be
able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
