While lesbians on TV today may be advocating a world without fathers it is revealed to us through scripture that the major issues in the human, and indeed the global spheres, all relate to the schism between humanity and God Himself. Jesus said, 'No one comes to the Father except through Me.' Paul told us that the earth itself is groaning until sons of God are revealed. Jesus told His disciples that if they had seen Him, they had seen the Father.
All human beings suffer from the severance from God through the sin of Adam, and Jesus came to not only reveal God as the perfect Father, but to introduce us to Him. On this mothering Sunday, fathers are indeed vital to our society, and especially those who have met the Perfect Father.
Indeed. And how great it was for the Toronto blessing to bring a renewed emphasis on God's fatherhood.
