Bible Question (short): God--the "loving Father" of whom? |
Question (full): Hi Justme! After reading your post and thinking a bit about your assertion that God is our "loving Father" (which I agree with you), I am curious as to whether or not you believe all people are God's children--especially in light of the words of Jesus in John 8:44. He obviously made a distinction as to who these Jews had for a father. So at what point can you say that God is our "loving Father" without disregarding Jesus' own distinction?
