Our Father
Is there evidence that The Master of the Universe, Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, is OUR FATHER?
We have a few pieces of evidence to give us our answer. Working backwards we have:
First, in the Prophets we have Us referring to HIM as our Father, and we have HIM saying that we will call HIM, “My Father”, in these
Jeremiah 3:4 Didst thou not just now cry unto Me: ‘My father, Thou art the friend of my youth.
Jeremiah 3:19 But I said: ‘How would I put thee among the sons, and give thee a pleasant land, the goodliest heritage of the nations!’ And I said: ‘Thou shalt call Me, My father; and shalt not turn away from following Me.’
Isaiah 63:16 For Thou art our Father; for Abraham knoweth us not, and Israel doth not acknowledge us; Thou, O LORD, art our Father, our Redeemer from everlasting is Thy name.
Isaiah 64:7 But now, O LORD, Thou art our Father; we are the clay, and Thou our potter, and we all are the work of Thy hand.
Deuteronomy 32:19 And the LORD saw, and spurned, because of the provoking of His sons and His daughters.
Genesis 6:1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
2 that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives, whomsoever they chose. [sons of GOD (Adam is the Spirit of GOD placed in the dirt yields “sons of GOD”, and so a rib from Adam used to create Eve “daughters of men”]
3 And the LORD said: ‘My spirit shall not abide in man for ever, for that he also is flesh; therefore shall his days be a hundred and twenty years.’
Genesis 2:7 Then the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
* . . . . *
19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto the man to see what he would call them; and whatsoever the man would call every living creature, that was to be the name thereof.
20 And the man gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found a help meet for him.
21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the place with flesh instead thereof.
22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from the man, made He a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23 And the man said: ‘This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.’
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife, and they shall be one flesh.
25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
So we are back at the beginning, where man and woman started. We also have the steps in the process used, to show man from GOD and woman from man. We truly are HIS CHILDREN, not the flesh, but the SPIRIT, which is what makes us different from all living flesh on the earth.
Honor your FATHER . . . .
I can show you the way, if you want to know.
IT is to our benefit to HEARKEN until the LIVING GOD OF ISRAEL, and to our pain and shame to do otherwise.
My prayer is that The LORD grant you eyes that see, ears that hear and an understanding heart, then you return unto HIM soon!(Isaiah 6: 9 And He said: ‘Go, and tell this people: hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. 10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they, seeing with their eyes, and hearing with their ears, and understanding with their heart, return, and be healed.’)
