BibleNewsProphecy: Should You Call God Father?
(Wikipedia from the 1845 book of The Sermon on the Mount)
Should Christians call God Father?
The Continuing Church of God (CCOG) is pleased to suggest the following video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel:
Should You Call God Father?
Is it sexist to call God ‘Father’? What does the Old Testament teach? What about the New Testament? What did Jesus teach? Who did Jesus say to pray to? Are we supposed to worship God in truth or according to our preferences and traditions? Did any post New Testament writers, like Melito of Sardis, state that one needed to call God ‘Father’? What did the Protestant United Church of Christ do related to that? Were they right to replace ‘Heavenly Father’ with ‘Abba God’? What about the Roman Catholic ‘Inclusive New Testament’? Steve Dupuie and Dr. Thiel address these matters.
Here is a link to our video: Should You Call God Father?
The Bible clearly calls Jesus the Son of God and God His Father.
Do not be dissuaded by those who do not truly believe the word of God.
