Which "Father" do you choose? Which "Family" do you choose. We cannot avoid choosing. We DO HAVE one Father / Family OR the other.
Jn 8:31-42
They answered and said to him, “Our father is Abraham.”
Jesus said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children,
you would be doing the works of Abraham.
But now you are trying to kill me,
a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God;
Abraham did not do this.
You are doing the works of your father!”
So they said to him, “We were not born of fornication.
We have one Father, God.”
Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me,
for I came from God and am here;
I did not come on my own, but he sent me.”
I recall reading or hearing little if anything disucssed about these passages or this concept Jesus put forth of 2 families, 2 Fathers. I recall discussions ad nausum about DO NOT JUDGE, nonesene by fauxChristians to enable "Christain" to be a club membership and not a RADICAL WAY OF LIFE - GLOBAL FAMILY.
To serve our brothers we need to become wise in what choice we AND THEY have made. Otherwise, how can we be "Saved," or to "Save?"
