Filhos de Deus
Ser filho de Deus é o maior privilégio da existência humana. Pela fé em Cristo, recebemos o direito de ser chamados filhos de Deus — herdeiros de Deus e co-herdeiros com Cristo.
O direito de ser filho
A todos que creram no nome de Jesus, deu-lhes o poder de serem feitos filhos de Deus — nascidos não do sangue, mas de Deus.
Nawe abhaatʉ bhʉʉsi bhanʉ bhaayɨsʉngʼaanirɨ na kuyiisirirya, bhayo bhakahaabhwa ʉbhʉnaja bhwa kʉbha abhaana bha Mungu. Abhaana bha Mungu bhayo, bhatiibhwirwɨ kumbusurʉ ya abhaatʉ, hamwɨ kʉbhʉsɨɨgi bhwʉ ʉmʉʉtʉ, hamwɨ kubhwɨndi bhwʉ ʉmʉʉtʉ, nawe Mungu umwene akabhakora kʉbha abhaana bhaazɨ.
Mmbe, Mungu akasɨɨga ɨɨsɨ, kuhika akahurucha umwana waazɨ umumwɨmwɨ aazɨ mʉʉsɨ, korereke abhaatʉ bhʉʉsi bhanʉ bhakumwisirirya bhatarimɨra, nawe bhabhɨ nʉ ʉbhʉhʉru bhwa kemerano.
Nawe ibhyɨrɨkɨnʼyʉ bhɨnʉ bhirimu mʉkɨtabhʉ kɨnʉ bhyandikirwɨ korereke mwisiriryɨ Yɨɨsu newe Kiriisitʉ, Umwana wa Mungu, na korereke ku kumwisirirya, mobhone ʉbhʉhʉru bhwa kemerano kuriina ryazɨ.
Nangʉ imwɨ bhʉʉsi, nɨ-bhaana bha Mungu kubhwisirirya bhwanyu, kʉ kʉbha mugwatɨɨnɨ na Yɨɨsu Kiriisitʉ. Imwɨ bhʉʉsi bhanʉ mʉbhatiizirwɨ, mugwatɨɨnɨ na Kiriisitʉ.
Nawe hanʉ ryahikirɨ ribhaga rɨnʉ ryatɨɨrwɨ, Mungu akatʉma Umwana waazɨ kʉʉsɨ, akiibhurwa nʉ ʉmʉkari, mumigirʉ ja Musa. Akatumwa asabhʉrɨ bhanʉ twarɨ bhambʉʉsa bhi imigirʉ ja Musa, korereke itwʉsi tʉbhɨ abhaana bha Mungu.
Nangʉ imwɨ mʉtarɨ bhambʉʉsa naatu, nawe nɨ-bhaana bha Mungu. Na kʉ kʉbha nɨ-bhaana, Mungu arabhagabhya.
A identidade dos filhos
O Espírito testifica com nosso espírito que somos filhos de Deus. E se filhos, também herdeiros — herdeiros de Deus.
Bhʉʉsi bhanʉ bhahaakangatwa ne Ekoro ya Mungu, bhayo nebho abhaana bha Mungu. Mungu atabhahɨɨrɨ Ekoro Ɨndɨndu korereke mʉbhɨ kwikɨ bhambʉʉsa bhanʉ bhakwʉbhaha, nawe akabhaha Ekoro Ɨndɨndu yʉ ʉkʉbhakora mʉbhɨ abhaana bhaazɨ. Ekoro yiyo neyo ɨkʉtʉsakirya kʉbhɨrɨkɨra Mungu, "Bhaabha!"
Ekoro yiyo iyeene ɨramenyeekererya mozekoro zɨɨtʉ kʉbha, itwɨ nɨ-bhaana bha Mungu.

Viver como filhos
Vede que grande amor o Pai nos concedeu: que fôssemos chamados filhos de Deus! E é isso que somos.

Yɨɨsu akabhabhuurya, "Na niimwɨ mʉrabhuga inyɨ, nɨ-wɨɨwɨ?"
Simʉʉni Peetero akamʉgarukirya, "Awɨ, ni-Kiriisitʉ, Umwana wa Mungu wʉ ʉbhʉhʉru."
