Aren't we all God's Children?

I remember a meeting at a former church we attended when one of the members said about those who were obviously non-Christian, "After all, we are all God's children."

In one sense she was right. We are all God's children in that He created us all but that does not give everyone the right to call Him 'Our Father". To use that term means that you are member of His family together with other believers. As believers we are part of the family because He has adopted us into His family. We just cannot call Him Father because He created us, we have to have a family relationship.
