More on adoption

November 26, 2012

From Scotty Smith in Reclaiming Adoption:

"Because the whole pan-national family of God will be adopted(just as God has promised), because Jesus is going to finish making all things new( just as He promised), we can and must give ourselves over to offering this world the first-fruits of the new heaven and new earth. This is why Christians should be the front-line lovers and servants in the world of human trafficking, poverty, hunger, injustice, and indeed, in the world of orphans. Because Jesus has signed on for eliminating the very category and word 'orphan' from the human vocabulary, let's partner with him, one adoption at a time. We cannot and will not possibly fail. Our labors in the Lord are, and never will be in vain!"
