There are many sayings of the Messiah to all disciples to watch, not for the time of Jacob's Trouble, not for the fall of Jerusalem, but for the day of their reckoning.

Oh?

Like THIS one??

Call no man father...

"Call no man father..."


Elsie, my brother with a sister's name!   (Don't worry bro - I won't tell anyone you're a transnamer!   Who am I to judge?)   How are ya?   (I got a very limited opportunity to briefly jump back on FR here tonight, so, as you can see, I took advantage of it, but I'm on borrowed time here!)

Do you believe that the Holy Spirit inspired the writers of the Gospels, and inspired the Apostle Paul, to do something wrong, when they were inspired to call a man "father" in the Scriptures?   (Here's a couple quick examples, of many such similar "father" references in the New Testament.)


And going on from thence, He saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and He called them.   Matthew 4:21





"What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found?...that he might be the father of all them that believe..."   Romans 4:1, 4:11 (middle)


Did the Holy Spirit inspire them to do something wrong there (and many times elsewhere in their New Testament writings), when they wrote those inspired words, calling a man "father", again, and again, and again?
