God doesn't have any grandchildren.

Summary

This quote suggests that one cannot inherit or acquire a relationship with God solely through familial connections or religious traditions. It implies that individuals must personally seek and cultivate their own connection with God, regardless of their family background or religious heritage. In other words, salvation or spiritual connection with God is not a generational entitlement but is a personal journey and responsibility for each person.
