It was Martin Luther who had a difficult time with the concept of God being a Loving Heavenly Father. Jesus says “as you have seen ME, You have SEEN the Father.”-{John 14:9}. To get a true, un-warped view of God as your Father, look at Jesus. Over 600 times He is referred to in the Gospels. Ask the Lord to show you the Father. 21 times in the Gospels He is called “Your Father”… 1 John 3:1-3 says “SEE- what love the FATHER has lavished on us that we should be called children of God and such we ARE…” Peter wrote, “Blessed be the God and FATHER of our Lord Jesus who has caused us to be BORN AGAIN to a LIVING HOPE”- {1 Peter 1:3}…Paul wrote, “Blessed be the God and FATHER….who has blessed us with every spiritual blessings…”{-Eph 1:3;} again, “Blessed be the God and FATHER …the Father of MERCIES and God of ALL Comfort who comforts us… so we will be able to comfort others.”– {2 Cor 1:3}

- Revealed Himself through Jesus Christ
- Who has caused you to be Born again to a Living Hope
- Blessed you with EVERY Spiritual blessing in Christ
- Merciful
- Comforting
- Lavishes His Love upon you
- Made you His child
” Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father.”-{John 14:9}
