Who are the ultimate children of God?

God is looking for repentance, and is looking for a return of all His people from Abraham’s seed (actually from Adam and Eve‘s seed) who obey Him. His children are the ones who strive and are eager to do His will from the tribe of Judah and Benjamin (Jews), the ten northern tribes, people from Ohio, Iraq, and the Muslim heritage. For we all come from Adam and Eve who were created and joined by God.  He has wanted reconciliation since Adam and Eve’s disobedience in the garden. Read in (Genesis 15-21) why we are truly fighting in  Iraq? It all started years ago because of the lack of patience and lack of obedience to God. It can show you the terrible consequences of one bad decision that can last several thousand years.  We all have the opportunity to receive the blessing of eternal life and be heirs.  Please read Ephesians 4:4-6.  Many different backgrounds of people made up the first century church whether they had a Jewish or Gentile heritage.  God created Jews and Gentiles and we tend to forget that both can make up the one true Body.

“For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.  There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.  And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.” Gal. 3:27-29 

In the New Testament (Covenant), Jesus/God (Matthew 1:23 Immanuel means God with us, John 10:30, 1John 5:7 says “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.”) always wants His betrothed bride to return to Him if we have been spiritual adulterers (James 4:4)
