Has God got any grandchildren ?
Just a simple question.
Tell me fully your opinion.

God has a world of grandchildren ,you are one.

Sorry, to have to disagree with you.
By Baptism I became a child of GOD , not a grandchild.

Some people believe that Jesus had a child, and that his bloodline is tracable. Of course, most people who claim to be part of Jesus' bloodline today are just doing it to get worship and money from gullible people.

Jesus bloodline - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Just throwing it out there.

I guess since you appear to want to play with words, children, grandchilden.

In what sense do you wish to mean children and grandchildren,
Physcial or spiritual

Fr_Chuck,

I am not playing with words.

GOD has NO grandchildren !

I mean this in every sense of the word.

Reflect further:-
All baptised are children.
There is NO preferential place with GOD.

I agree, Rolcam. No one gets into heaven based upon anyone else having received Christ. Scripture says that all who come to Him will become adopted "sons of God".

Gal 3:26-27
26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
NKJV

This wording is important for another reason. In ancient Israel, a son gained a share in the inheritance of the father. A grandson would not automatically have rights in the inheritance, other than through their fathers. Scripture says that those who believe are made sons of God. The fact that we who have received Christ as saviour are made sons and not grandsons is a great promise. We all receive a share of the inheritance, which is eternal life in Christ Jesus.

Gal 3:28
28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
NKJV

As Fr_chuck said word games you ask a question but have determined that the answer is NO
So why ask?
That is like me asking does God have a pet dog or cat and then answering NO to anybody that replies.

Add your answer here.
