THE SUBJECT OF SONSHIP that Apostle Greg Hood has chosen for this book, Sonship of the Kingdom, is vital for our times. Its biblical understanding is indeed life-changing. Sadly, because of nominal religion's portrayal of Father God, much of our world has the wrong perspective of who God really is. Sonship According to the Kingdom is the enlightenment we need to further our understanding, indeed, our relationship, with Father God. So many live in fear of our great God, not realizing his loving, tender, and gracious nature toward his children. He is not out to get us if we mess up. Let's face it: if he was the vengeful, unforgiving God as portrayed by religion, we'd all be dead by now. Fortunately, his desire is to lovingly mentor us, shaping our lives into plans and purposes that bring out the best in us-the best as we were created to be.
