There is only one adoption that will be in effect in eternity in the new heaven and the new earth - and that is the adoption into the one and only one family of God the Eternal Father (JEHOVAH) that we receive as eternal sons and eternal daughters thru faith and repentance on the Only Begotten of the Father, Jesus Christ.
