Baptism: The child of God, inheritor of the Kingdom of Heaven - Page 4

Index

SUMMARY

1. In the great Christian Family of the Church we are brothers and sisters of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and therefore we belong very closely to God his Father.  That is why, since a person’s Baptism, he or she is not just a child of God but the child of God in a special way.

2. An inheritor of the Kingdom of Heaven means one who possesses the blessings given by God to the Church which is his Kingdom.
