Do you ever feel disqualified from God's family? Like you've failed too many times, drifted too far, and maybe God has forgotten about you? The Liar whispers that you don't deserve your status as a child of God. But how you feel is not a measurement of spiritual reality. In this episode, Dave Scherrer shares a powerful Kingdom parable about a painting hanging above the mantle in God's family room — a hologram that shifts between your image, the image of Jesus, and every believer who has ever lived, all found together in Christ. Your adoption into God's family was accomplished in Christ, not in you. So stand tall. You are a prince or princess of the Living King of Kings — and the Father brags about you every single day. === CHAPTERS === 0:00 Introduction — How do you feel about your place in the Kingdom? 0:45 The whisper of shame and guilt 1:30 Scripture: You ARE children of God (1 John 3:1, John 1:12-13, Galatians 3:26) 2:30 The Liar's strategy — condemnation and reduction 3:15 Feelings are not a measurement of spiritual reality 3:45 The painting above the mantle — a Kingdom parable 5:00 The hologram shifts — your image, Jesus' image, all believers in Christ 6:00 Hidden with Christ in heaven — right now 6:30 Go and act regal — closing challenge === CONNECT WITH US === Website: https://100foldministries.org Subscribe to the Newsletter: https://100foldministries.org/subscribe Email Dave: dave@100foldministries.org === SCRIPTURE REFERENCES === 1 John 3:1 — "See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God!"
