In This Family We _________ (fill in the blank) [EPUB ebook] 
The Wonder of Being a Child of God

In This Family We _________ our earthly family and the Spiritual family of a Jesus follower are compared and contrasted. The influences of our earthly families are examined and discussed. The characteristics of members of the Lord’s family are identified from Scripture. The process that the Lord has designed for the Jesus follower to become more like Jesus is explored and explained. We recognize the wonder of God’s provision of the gift the Holy Spirit placed in the Jesus follower and how through their renewed minds they are transformed into godliness. The transformation is a wonderful work of God. Jesus followers will understand more completely what it means to be a child of God.

Since the born-again believer is a new creation, the reader will discover how to become a Jesus follower. The Jesus follower will also be shown an extensive list of thinking patterns and behavior that characterize the Lord’s children.

The transformation involves a process of putting on the thoughts and behaviors of God’s children and putting off the thoughts and behaviors of the old man.

This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! (2 Corinthians 5:17).

Don’t lie to each other, for you have stripped off your old sinful nature and all its wicked deeds. Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him (Colossians 3:9-10).
