Romans 8:12-17b

Oct 19, 2025    Phil Steiger

Paul teaches that believers have been adopted into God's family through the Spirit, transforming them from slaves to fear into beloved children. As adopted sons and daughters, Christians can approach God as Abba Father with both intimacy and reverence. This adoption makes believers co-heirs with Christ, sharing in His inheritance and even His sufferings. The Spirit of adoption replaces the spirit of slavery and fear, enabling Christians to live with confidence and courage. Rather than being controlled by earthly anxieties, believers can trust in their heavenly Father's love and sovereignty.
