Being a child of God doesn't just mean going to church on sunday or just having Christianity as a religion, it is about imitating the life of Christ Jesus and showing the people around you that you though you in this world but you are not of the world.
Being a child of God means having a forgiving heart even in the worst case senerio remember that the non believers don't really believe in forgiveness they believe that forgiveness has a limit but a genuine child of God knows that for the fact that christ could come down to earth and die for we humans even though he had the power to summon the league of angels to fight for him or use his Godly power to inflict afflictions on those that wanted to harm him but he didn't do it rather he prayed for them and forgave all those that turned against him ,this alone is enough reason for a genuine child of God to forgive even in the worst conditions.
Being a child of God means having the heart to share with your neighbor even when you don't have enough for yourself and also giving from the bottom of your heart not giving as if you are compelled to give but giving without looking for a reward or to show off.
Being a child of God doesn't just mean being able to call the name of Jesus in prayers but living up to that name ,everyone knew Jesus as a good guy no matter what he never broke nor did he give in to the devil .
Being a child if God means making the people around you know your stand which is in christ Jesus and not a push over , some who claim to be a children of God just have it as a title nothing more and are easily pushed over if things tend to be a hot which is very bad.
So my beloved in christ Jesus, being a child of God is not a title rather a life style and must be lived well, God bless us all.
I'm a child of God. We are all his children and we must adhere to his instructions
