God's Offspring
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Acts 17:29  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up)

From knowing what man—God's offspring—is like, we can know that God will be a living, communicating, creating, emotional Being but of perfect character. That was replicated only one time—in Jesus of Nazareth. He had what we lack, the divine nature complete with all of the perfect character to go with it!

John W. Ritenbaugh
We Shall Be God! (Part 1)


 

Galatians 6:16  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up)

As members of the God Family—children of God, we will be God, ruling as He would rule. Spiritually speaking, we will be the kings God promised would descend from Jacob (Genesis 35:12). Yes, Israel is an apt designation for God's church; the Israel of God will rule as God.

Viewed in the present tense or in the future, we in the true Israel of God have a great deal in common with our patriarch Jacob. Like him, we will eventually have a new name (Revelation 3:12). Like him, we struggle to overcome. And like him, those who remain faithful among us will someday prevail, qualifying to rule as God—princes forever with Him.
