Joe<br><br>As usual, thanks for the insight. I didn't like the thought of Him losing His sonship, so we might have it. And it is a great point about experiencign sonship. I have wondered how to do that. I will ask you, seeing my own heart, how do you finely feel safe in our position in Christ? Not safe in a "lose your salvation" safe, but that same trusting that Ruth had with Boaz? It is my lifelong struggle. Feeling as though I am absolutely safe in my relationship and therefore rest in His grace, knowing it doesn't really matter what others think of me.
