II. Abba – “Father!”
God, indeed, who has
predestined us to adoption as his sons, has conformed us to the glorious Body
of Christ. So then you who have become sharers in Christ are appropriately
called “Christs.”34
The new man, reborn and restored to his God by grace, says first of all,
“Father!” because he has now begun to be a son.35
