Bible Question: is God the father of everyone in the whole world? where can this be found? |
Bible Answer: Dear Jajoje, I do not believe that the bible teaches "the universal Fatherhood of God". Jesus told the Pharisees (John 8:44) "You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father". To the best of my knowledge, the Old Testament never refers to the Jews as the sons of God, they are called by God Himself as the sons of Israel. Ex 3:15 "God, furthermore, said to Moses, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, 'The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you".
