God - The Father
God - The Father
Synopsis
The Bible often speaks about God in terms of humanized traits and ideas so that we can better understand certain aspects of his character and nature. What does the Bible really mean when it calls God our āFatherā? For us to understand Paulās usage of āFatherā more fully we need to put ourselves into Paulās time and culture as best as we can to understand what Paulās concept of a Father was. So we start looking at āFatherā in its context. We will then consider Paulās verses that reference God as Father and try to make theological sense of them. This is our second lesson on Paulās views of God.
