Everyone do profess to be a child of God but not everyone is,that you profess it doesn't make you one;what make you the friend or child of God is your OBEDIENCE to His word."Even though Jesus was God's son,He learned obedience and he became the source of eternal salvation for all those who OBEY HIM" Heb 5:8-9NLT.Obedience is not what you say but what you do.it is not about being a teacher of God's word or the hearer but doer of the word.for if anyone only listen to the word without obeying it,he is like a man who looks carefully at his own natural face in a mirror and promptly forget what he was like..but an active doer shall be blessed in his doing(his life of obedience)James1:22-25Amp
