    How We Become Children of God

    Now, how do these Gentiles cease to be children of wrath and become children of God, and thus the objects, definitely, of Christ’s intercession? Paul explains, by reminding these Ephesians of their former sinful Gentile state, and adding:EGWC 242.2

    “That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: but now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.” Ephesians 2:12, 13. “Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone.” Verses 19, 20.EGWC 242.3

    Add to this Paul’s words to the Galatians: “And if ye be Christ’s then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” Galatians 3:29.EGWC 243.1
