Call no man father.
“Call no man father.”
Was Christ guilty of this when he referred to Father Abraham in the parable of Lazarus and the rich man? How about Paul, or James, or John, in numerous epistles referring to Abraham, or to ‘fathers’, or to themselves as father (as Paul did in the first letter to the Corinthians)?
In the immediate preceding verse, Christ said to let no one call you Rabbi, or teacher; does this mean we refer to no one by that title who fits the qualifications?
Or could it be, perhaps, that our Lord was speaking about something more fundamental than a mere title?

//I await the day that the greater Church recognizes Bergoglio as an antipope
