My fellow brethren in Christ Jesus greetings to you all. So we all go through stuff and the bible is very clear that being a Christian is not an exemption to trials and/or opposition. This has to be understood, when you get born again you are supposed to study the Bible and pray for the sake of building a solid relationship with God our Father. Watch this because of Adam and Eve’s disobedience there was a rift or separation that took place between us and God our Father, but God had a plan through Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour and by the ushering in of the Holy Spirit so that we can be adopted as Sons. Firstly you receive Christ Jesus and are born again(infancy), then as you become a student/disciple you begin your growth and journey as a Christian but hear me well you need to mature that is to graduate to a doctrate where you become a Son. For as we read the following passage of scripture the Apostle Paul wrote this in reference to Sons not just Christian.
Watch this,
Romans 8:31-39
[31]What then shall we say to [all] this? If God is for us, who [can be] against us? [Who can be our foe, if God is on our side?] [Ps. 118:6.]
[32]He who did not withhold or spare [even] His own Son but gave Him up for us all, will He not also with Him freely and graciously give us all [other] things?
[33]Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect [when it is] God Who justifies [that is, Who puts us in right relation to Himself? Who shall come forward and accuse or impeach those whom God has chosen? Will God, Who acquits us?]
[34]Who is there to condemn [us]? Will Christ Jesus (the Messiah), Who died, or rather Who was raised from the dead, Who is at the right hand of God actually pleading as He intercedes for us?
[35]Who shall ever separate us from Christ’s love? Shall suffering and affliction and tribulation? Or calamity and distress? Or persecution or hunger or destitution or peril or sword?
[36]Even as it is written, For Thy sake we are put to death all the day long; we are regarded and counted as sheep for the slaughter. [Ps. 44:22.]
[37]Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors and gain a surpassing victory through Him Who loved us.
[38]For I am persuaded beyond doubt (am sure) that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things impending and threatening nor things to come, nor powers,
[39]Nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The above scriptures most of us we misquote them because we don’t realise it was never intended to the born again or Christians but this was written for Sons. To see this clearly you need to head back a few verses and see whom the Apostle Paul was addressing this blessing to:
Romans 8:15-17,21,29,36-37,39
[15]For [the Spirit which] you have now received [is] not a spirit of slavery to put you once more in bondage to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption [the Spirit producing sonship] in [the bliss of] which we cry, Abba (Father)! Father!
[16]The Spirit Himself [thus] testifies together with our own spirit, [assuring us] that we are children of God.
[17]And if we are [His] children, then we are [His] heirs also: heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ [sharing His inheritance with Him]; only we must share His suffering if we are to share His glory.
[21]That nature (creation) itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and corruption [and gain an entrance] into the glorious freedom of God’s children.
[29]For those whom He foreknew [of whom He was aware and loved beforehand], He also destined from the beginning [foreordaining them] to be molded into the image of His Son [and share inwardly His likeness], that He might become the firstborn among many brethren.

The distinction between Sons and Christians is seen on the working of the Holy Spirit in one’s life. Sons speak with authority whilst Christians follow those authority. Brothers and sisters we were saved and we must not just end there but must grow and advance in our Spirituality to the point of Son’s, just as we start at preschool in this life and graduate with a doctorate degree so it must be spiritually. Check yourself and see at which stage in your spiritual qualifications are you. Study to show yourself approved-to mature!
