📖 Cainan’s father was Enos; Enos’s father was Seth; Seth’s father was Adam; Adam’s father was God. —Luke 3:38 The Living Bible
It has always been the desire of God to be a Father to His children. When He created Adam, He created Him for fellowship. Adam was treated like a son. Adam was to rule the earth the way that God ruled the heavens. Adam was made in the image and likeness of God, like a child is to his parent. When Adam disobeyed God in the Garden, he died spiritually, and Satan was his new father. Adam was spiritually dead just like Satan is. God sent His Son Jesus to redeem mankind and to give us the opportunity to receive sonship (Galatians 4:5). That same chapter tells us that we are no more servants, but sons (v.7). We are not only sons of God, but we are heirs of God through Christ (Galatians 4:7). We have been restored back to our rightful place, let us walk like it and talk like it.
