The LIVING GOD #OFFSPRING

Spread the love

I don’t think I ever thought of being #God’s #Offspring until studying Acts 17.  Definition of  offspring is stated as a child or children; a descendant , however remote from the original stock.  Now that I am a great grandmother, I have a better understanding of what Paul was saying to those listening to him on Mars’ Hill in Athens.  “God that made the world and all things therein and seeing that He is Lord of heaven and earth…….has given to all life and breath; and has made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth…..that they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him and find Him, though He be not far from every one of us; for in Him We Live, and Move, and have our being…for  WE ARE HIS OFFSPRING. Forasmuch then WE ARE THE OFFSPRING OF GOD.”  Webster’s Dictionary’s last explanation for offspring states the result is FRUIT.
