Home Essay Series biblical adoption
This complete ten-essay series presents a detailed KJV study of biblical adoption and inheritance, tracing the doctrine from Israel’s national adoption to the Church’s heavenly sonship and future glorification. It distinguishes the new birth from adoption, explains how Christ redeemed servants so they could receive the standing of sons, and examines the Spirit of adoption, the cry of “Abba, Father,” freedom from bondage, spiritual maturity, eternal security, and the believer’s heavenly family identity. The series also clarifies the differences between Israel and the Church, standing and state, salvation and discipleship, free eternal life and earned rewards, and the Rapture and Second Advent. Readers will understand why every believer is presently accepted, sealed, and made an heir through Jesus Christ while still awaiting the redemption of the body, the Judgment Seat of Christ, future reward, and the public manifestation of the sons of God in glory.
