We have a choice. ( Luke 12 v 49 - 53)

I want to hammer home why our great triune God choose to send Christ into the world,my  grandmother  used to say about some victim or perpetrator of crime ,'well they are  someones child'.Whose child are you? here is what Jesus called some,' You belong to your father the devil', (John 8 v 44). The apostle wrote to certain believers,before they knew Christ, he said ,that before they trusted Christ they were,' without hope and without God'( Ephesians 2 v 12. ) John writing in his gospel wrote the following,'To all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name,He gave the right to become children of God'.(1 v 12). The question is this ,are you in the devils family or God's family?,is Christ your Saviour or is He not your Saviour?. One writer wrote the following. 'Christs coming would inevitably mean divisions',those who were His and those who are not,no one can stand before the cross without making a decision,to accept Christ or reject Him.To stay as they are,or to become what they could be,children of the Living God,and wonder of all that means. Dear friend it is your choice.
