“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.

Prairie View Christian Church hosted the IOWA Bible Conference on September 9-11 2016. The theme was 'Being Strong Leaders in a Troubled World.' Joshua 24:15 says 'And if it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the LORD choose for yourselves today whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served which where beyond the River or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house we will serve the LORD.'
