Are You A True Child Of God? by ACKCITY: 10:09am On Mar 07, 2017
Many Christians claim to be sons of God because they are born-again. Yes it is true that you are a child of God once you have confessed Jesus Christ as Lord.

But, is that all that is required of you, just confessing Jesus Christ as Lord and continue in your sin?

No-No-No!
Call me a prophet of doom if you so wish, but I tell you the truth, God is angry with many Christians, pastors and priests because they have turned His words upside down, preaching, teaching and doing what pleases them but not following the commandments of God accordingly.
God asked the Israelites in the Old Testament through Prophet Malachi these questions, in Malachi 1:6-8

“The Lord of Heaven’s Armies says to the priests. “A son honors his father, a servant respects his master. If I am your father and master, where are the honor and respect I deserve? You have shown contempt for my name! “But you ask, ‘How have we ever shown contempt for Your name?”

Many Christians are constantly offending God in their daily conducts and dealings with Him and other people. They don’t give honor to His name and yet they claim to be His children.

Which father will be happy if his son wakes up every morning looks him in the face, without saying a good morning tells him to give him money for his welfare?

Or which father will be happy to take the left-over crumbs from his son’s table as his birthday gift? Yet many Christians would rather spend the bulk of their income on partying, clubbing and other earthly pleasures and leave just crumbs for God!
Malachi 1:7 says, “You have shown contempt by offering defiled sacrifices on my altar. Then you ask, ‘How have we defiled the sacrifices?’ You have defiled them by saying the altar of the Lord deserves no respect”
