For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom His whole family in Heaven & on earth derives its name. (Ephesians 3:14-15). The family of God includes all who have believed in Him in the past, all who believe in the present, & all who will believe in the future. We are all a family because we have the same Father.

The Holy Spirit, however, gives us new desires, helping us wanting to obey God. With new hearts, hearts of flesh & not hearts of stone, we will find that serving God is our greatest joy. Under God's new covenant, God's law is inside us & not outside, ie, on a tablet of stone. No, it's written in our hearts. It is no longer an external set of rules & principles.
