The True Sons of God

"The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed." (Romans 8:19 NIV)

The true sons of the living God will no longer shrink in fear when commanded to stop preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ (Acts 4:18-20).

The true sons of of the living God will preach the gospel to their oppressors, knowing that it could well cost them their very lives (Acts 6:8-7:60).

The true sons of the living God will pray and sing glorious hymns of praise to God while sitting in prison, without embarrassment or dismay, knowing there are people there who need to be rescued from the kingdom of darkness (Acts 16:25-36).

The true sons of the living God will confront those who deal in darkness, knowing that they are deceived by Satan and that they need deliverance as much as the sons once did (Acts 19:17-20).

The true sons of the living God will stand up to the authorities with respect and without fear, knowing that God’s living truth is greater than all the principalities and powers that the enemy can muster (Acts 22).

And the true sons of the living God, no matter the situation, will boldly and without hindrance preach the kingdom of God and teach about the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 28:31). This is the image of Christ into which we must desire to be formed!

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” (Acts 1:8)
