| | God the Father Greater |
| | Rather it is that God the Son is glorifying God the Father. | | | These Scriptures, by designating the Father as God and Jesus as Man or Lord, do not deny the divinity of the Son. | | | Because Christ is from the Father, when we worship Christ as God for His glory and goodness, we are also honouring the Father, for Jesus said: He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent Him. |

| | God the Father [GP2] |
| | Therefore Jesus Christ's Father was the God of the Jews, and the Old Testament called the God of the Jews, Yehowah (YHWH). | | | Because God is spirit, then those of God can/will "see" God at least Spiritually. | | | Outside of visions, no one had seen the true God in a physical sense (except to see Jesus Christ, who is the image of God, see GP 5, GP 10), because the true God is Spiritual and because the true God is the BeComingOne [He (who) Will-Be], whose completeness is yet to be manifested. |

| | Though God the Father is creator of all things, He is known as a personal and loving Father only to those who call on Him and seek His face (Acts 17:24:31). | | | The Bible reveals God as the Lord of the universe and calls Him "Father" in both Old and New Testaments. | | | Surely the most wonderful aspect of being a Christian is that we all have a unique relationship with the Creator of the universe, the God and Father of Jesus, the Living Spirit who is Lord of all history. |

| | The masculine pronoun safeguards (1) the transcendence of God against the illusion that nature is born from God as a mother rather than created and (2) the grace of God against the illusion that we can somehow save ourselves—two illusions ubiquitous and inevitable in the history of religion (1994, p. | | | Indeed it is.

| | With greater reason God calls himself Father of human beings and wants to be called Father by us. | | | Not because he had begotten them according to the flesh, but because he had regenerated them according to the Spirit. | | | Christ when his body was fastened to the cross saw Mary, his mother according to the flesh, and John, the disciple most dear to him, and said to John: `Behold your mother.' and to Mary: `Behold your son.' Christ called Mary John's mother, not because she had begotten him, but because she loved him. |
