Wow that took some time to puzzle out.
We are God children because He drew us to Him and we became grafted onto the tree. Read Romans chapter 11 and 12 for more detail about this. Best wishes to you.

The attitude you should have is the one Christ Jesus had;
He always had the nature of God,but He did not think by force He should become equal with God.
Instead of this,of His own free will He gave up all He had,and
took the nature of a servant.
He became like man,and appeared in human likeness.
He was humble and walked the path of obedience all the way to death-- His death on the cross.
For this reason God raised Him to the highest place above
and gave Him the Name that is higher than any other Name.
Praise Jesus.The Word of The Lord.
The Holy Bible.With love for love and by love.
Good= Think of others before yourself
Bad=Think of yourself and only yourself=Selfish
He who is first will be last and he who is last will be first.
This is God's way demonstrated by giving up all He had for humankind.His only precious Son.Think of the agony God the Father went through.watching His Son go through the torture of having all mankinds sins on His shoulders
Watching His Only Son nailed to that cross Because

Jesus said unless you are borne again you can not enter the kingdom of God.
You must be borne of water (natural birth) and spirit (borne to God by faith).
God has chosen us (you, me and others) to be his spiritual sons and daughters.
God is our Father by faith. This means that when you hear that Jesus died in your place,
so that you can go to God and he will accept you, you believe it.
Only God can convince you that this is true. A man may tell you, but God must convince you.
If you say, "I will not believe!" he can not help you. you must first want to believe.
If you want to believe, God will give you the faith you need to believe.
If you are not sure if you believe, ask him to help you.
Jesus was always the Son of God, but when he was borne in the flesh, he was the full
representation of God the Father. This is why it is said, that God became flesh.

i dont know what they mean but we all are GODs children even the ones who dont believe in him. and god is still god no matter what name he is called. the bible says god is the god of the living not the dead. when you look in the eyes of a living being animal or human you see apart of god now look in the eyes of something dead you will see a blank emptyness its like some one has turned the lights out. the reason the eyes look like that is because gods spirit has left the body. you will see that in every ones eyes no matter what religion they are so no one on this earth has the right to say some one else isnt one of gods children

Anyone can be God's children if they come to Him and accept Him as their personal Savor. So even you and I can become Children of God
Christ came in human form in order to:
(1) Reveal the Father. John 14:9.
(2) Put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. Hebrews 9:26.
(3) Destroy the works of the devil. I John 3:8.
His death.
(1) No one is saved by the life of Christ but through the death of Christ. John 3:14-18.
(2) It was part of God's eternal purpose. Hebrews 10:7.
(3) It was necessary to fulfill Old Testament prophecies. Isaiah 53:5.
(4) It was necessary to provide salvation for man. Ephesians 1:7.
(5) The death of Christ was for others. He died as a substitute. I Corinthians 15:3.
(6) The death of Christ was sufficient. It completely meets God's claims because Christ endured and exhausted the judgment of God against sin. It completely meets man's need because it was the death of an Infinite Person and therefore its value is infinite.
His Resurrection
(1) The bodily resurrection of Christ was necessary to fulfill prophecy, to complete the work of the Cross, Romans 4:25, and to enable Christ to undertake His present work in heaven.
(2) Christ's resurrected body was real. It was not a spirit. Luke 24:39. It was the same body, which was crucified, because it had the print of the nails and the spear wound. John 20:27. Yet it was a changed body, with power to overcome physical limitations.
(3) After His resurrection, Christ appeared to certain of His followers at least ten times. More than five hundred reliable witnesses saw Him after He arose and testified that Jesus was in fact risen from the dead. I Corinthians 15:6-8.
(4) The resurrection of Christ is an important truth. If there had been no resurrection, there would be no Christian faith. This one event separates Christianity from all other religions. All religions point to the grave of their leader and “savior.” We do not have a dead God. We have a living Savior who triumphed over death and the grave and is alive for ever more. In the courts of the world, the testimony of eyewitnesses validate the evidence of the case. Personal opinions are of little value. With over 500 eyewitnesses testifying to having personally seen the resurrected Christ from the dead, it leaves no doubt to the validity of the event.
His ascension.
(1) At the end of His ministry on earth, Christ was carried up into heaven. Luke 24:51; Acts 1:9-11. His body was visible to those who were eyewitnesses as He ascended into heaven to fulfill His promise of John 14:2-3. He said, “I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself; that where I am there ye may be also.” John 14:2-3.
(2) He ascended so that He might enter into His reward, John 17: 5, and continue His ministry for His people. The first chapter of Revelation is John’s testimonial of the enthroned Christ.

It is not offensive, just not real clear.
