“Cry … ‘Abba, Father'”

Learning to Live in the Spirit of Adoption
“For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, ‘Abba, Father.'”
Romans 8:15
This study of spiritual adoption will hold many surprises for us. Not only is God the Father treated slightly in most works on theology, but the concept of sonship by spiritual adoption is scarcely understood.
Because of the biblical meaning of the term “adoption,” our study is forced to take a practical approach to the relationship of the believer to the heavenly Father. This approach is demanded by each of the passages in which the phrase “Abba, Father” is found.

Living in the Spirit of Adoption – VA 2015

Gene Cunningham - January 25, 2011

Malachi Session 5

Malachi Session  5

The priest Phinehas acted out God's attitude (Mal 2:7-8, Num 25:6-13). We need to study like Ezra, prepare like Solomon and preach like Paul. God used Ezra in a mighty way (Ezr 7:6-10). If we study like Ezra. we also need to prepare like Solomon (Ecc 12:9-11). Paul reasoned, explained, and demonstrated his points (Act 17:1-3). Teaching is a tremendous priviledge (Heb 5:12-14). God's Fatherhood was to the nation of Israel (Mal 2:10). God rails against divorce among the Jews (Mal 2:11-17). What makes this important to God? godly offspring (1Co 7:14).
