OUR FATHER

...............OUR FATHER

Our Father, which art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
For Thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory forever.
Amen.
Matthew 6:9- 15

(The Father bought us by giving His Son Jesus Christ to die for us)
Hath he not made thee and established thee?

Note: God is NOT the father of us all,
as in "the Universality of God and the Brotherhood of man" (ecumenism, a heresy).
God is Our Father ONLY when we come to Him through His Son, Jesus Christ.
"No man comes to the Father but by Me" John 14:6
Malachi 2: 10
"Have we not all one Father?
(only if we relate through His Son, see John 14)
Hath not one God created us?"(Yes, note well evolutionists)

Ephesians 4:6 and Hebrews 12:9...
There again we only have a relationship with the Father through His Son, Jesus Christ. We do not automatically have a relationship with the Father. We have to Want a relationship. The Father adopts us through the spirit of His Son, Jesus Christ. Romans 8: 15

Isaiah 63: 16
"Doubtless Thou art our Father, though Abraham be ignorant of us,
and Israel acknowledge us not :
Thou O LORD art Our Father, Our Redeemer,
Thy Name is from Everlasting (El Olam)

Isaiah 64:8
"But now O LORD, Thou art Our Father ; we are the clay, and Thou our Potter;
and we are all the work of Thy hand."

John 14:
"You believe in God , believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many mansions:
if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you."

"no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me....
"he that hath seen Me, hath seen the Father"

"I AM in the Father, and the Father in Me"
"he that loveth Me shall be loved of My Father"
" I love the Father"

John 15
"I AM the true vine and My Father is the husbandman"
"Whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in My Name,
He may give it you"

"He that hateth Me hateth My Father also"

John 16
"All things that the Father hath are Mine"
" I will pray (to ) the Father for you" ..........Advocate Hebrews 7:25; Job 16:21

JOHN 17...JESUS PRAYS TO THE FATHER
"And this is life eternal that they may know Thee,
the only true God (our Father) and
Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent (anointed, appointed)
"Holy Father, keep through Thine own Name
those Whom Thou hast given Me, that they may be one as We are."
" O Righteous Father"

Romans 8:15 "But ye have received the spirit of ADOPTION whereby
We cry 'Abba, Father'
(no relationship until adopted through the Spirit of Jesus Christ).

1 Corinthians 15:24 "then cometh the end, when He (Jesus) shall have delivered up
the kingdom to God, even the Father;
when He shall have put down all rule and all authority and power."

1 Corinthians 15:28 " And when all things shall be subdued unto Him, then shall
the Son also Himself be subject unto Him [the Father]
that put all things under Him, that God may be all in all."

1 Thessalonians 4:14 "even so them also which sleep in Jesus will
God (The Father....Elohim 3 in 1) bring with Him"
1 Thess. 4: 16 "and with the trump of God" [the Father]

The Book of Revelation comes from the Father:
"The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God (the Father) gave unto Him"
Rev.1:1

"All things that I have heard of My Father I have made known unto you"
John 15:15

"For if you forgive men their trespasses, your Heavenly Father will also forgive you".
But if you forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses".
and Luke 11:2-4 "and forgive us our sins;
for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us."

Forgiveness means not to carry a grudge, or a resentment; no back-biting, bitterness or gossip or vengeance of any kind. Forgiveness is praying for that person.
It is not necessarily fellowship. We are to stay away from those who willfully injure us.
2 Timothy 3
We are to PRAY for our enemies.
