Adoption is an act of God's free grace, whereby we are received into the number, and have a right to all the privileges of, the sons of God.
Westminster Shorter Catecism Q 34
Adoption distinguishes the sonship of believers from the sonship of Christ. Christ is the only Son of God by nature, being part of the divine Trinity. To apply adoption to Christ is heresy. Believers have no natural right to claim to be God's children. Physical birth never has and never will guarantee membership in God's family. Only God's election in grace, Christ's work in redemption, and the Spirit's work in the life of the believer bring adoption and make one a child of God.
