Galatians 4:5-6

5 ato redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive badoption as sons. 6And because you are sons, God has sent cthe Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!”

Hebrews 12:5-9

5And have you forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons?

d“My son, edo not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord,
nor be weary when reproved by him.
 6For fthe Lord disciplines the one he loves,
and chastises every son whom he receives.”
 7It is for discipline that you have to endure. gGod is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline? 8If you are left without discipline, hin which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons. 9Besides this, we have had earthly fathers who disciplined us and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to ithe Father of spirits jand live?

1 John 3:1

1See kwhat kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called lchildren of God; and so we are. The reason why mthe world does not know us is that nit did not know him.

Revelation of John 21:7

7 oThe one who conquers will have this heritage, and pI will be his God and qhe will be my son.
