Heirs Of God Rom. 8-15-16

Summary

The sermon explores the concept of believers as heirs of God through the Spirit of adoption, emphasizing that Christians are born into God's family by the new birth, which is a spiritual birth contrary to nature and predestined by God. The preacher explains the allegory of Sarah and Hagar from Galatians 4 to illustrate the two covenants: law and grace, highlighting that the covenant of grace is the true mother of all God's elect. The sermon also discusses the legal aspects of inheritance, adoption, and the completion of adoption at the resurrection when the body is redeemed. It stresses the importance of understanding biblical teachings directly from Scripture rather than relying on external theological interpretations.
