10. Sons & Daughters of God Romans 8:14-17 14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. 15 For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received a spirit of adoption. When we cry, "Abba! Father!" 16 it is that very Spirit bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ-- if, in fact, we suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him.
16. Unity in the Family The same Holy Spirit live in all Christians, wherever they are, whatever their denomination, background, color, or race. The same Spirit is in every child of God, and His desire is that we should be united.
17. Unity in the Family “Make every effort to keep the UNITY OF THE SPIRIT through the bond of peace.” - Ephesians 4:3 “There is ONE body and ONE Spirit, ONE hope, …ONE Lord, ONE faith, ONE baptism, ONE God and Father of all…” - Ephesians 4:4-6

19. The Growing Family The Spirit of God gives us both the desire and the ability to tell others about Jesus. “You will receive POWER when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” - Acts 1:8
