THEOLOGY - GOD - OUR FATHER - And We His Children
May 28, 2023
The most intimate way to talk about God is to talk about Him as Father. Father means He loves us! Of all His attributes, His love moves the discussion from the theological to the relational. J. I. Packer writes that “knowing God is a matter of personal dealing … a matter of personal involvement.” God is not just a character in a book. He is real and we can know Him. It’s also been said that “God is first and foremost, above and beyond anything else, a father.” And Father means He loves us! Because God is Father, He always has time for us, He will always take care of us, and He will always love us.
