I know you don't read this the same as I do but this is what I base my objections on.

Matt.23
[9] And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.

And when Jesus prayed to the Father he called Him Holy. I reserve this name for Him alone.

John.17
[11] And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

1 Peter 1:15-16 but as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in all your conduct; since it is written, "You shall be holy, for I am holy."

1 Cor 4:15 For though you have countless guides in Christ, you do not have many fathers. For I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.
