Speaking as someone who has left organized religion, but has a daily personal walk with Jesus, I can only encourage others to do the same.

May I suggest that you read Why We Love The Church by Kevin DeYoung and Ted Kluck?

There is only 1 Holy Father and that is The Lord Jesus Christ

I think that you mean that God the Father is the Holy Father. Jesus Christ is his only begotten Son.

I could give you a number of Scriptures, many that show that Jesus is in fact God the Father, but not sure if it would be of any benefit to debate...Semantics even

John Chapter 1 from vs 1 for starters...In the beginning was the Word (Notice the caps on Word) and the Word was with God and the Word was God

The Word became flesh and dwelt among us...Jesus is the Word

Jesus said...those who have seen me have seen the Father, I and my father are one

In old and new Testament , Jesus is referred to as the prince of peace, the everlasting Father , King of Kings, The Great I Am etc etc

Yes I believe in John 3:16. For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life...basically the Gospel in the nutshell

When I posted...that there was only One Holy Father and that is The Lord Jesus Christ...I could have just as easily said there is only 1 Holy Father and that is The Lord God

But anyway was just doing my evening quiet time as I hit the bed, so I skipped to find the Scripture I was thinking of, I could have chosen one of many, but here is the main one I was thinking of

From Isaiah 9 vs 6 , He was speaking of Jesus

For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given, and the government will be upon his shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful,Counselor,Mighty God,Everlasting Father,Prince of Peace

Time for bed :)
