God is our first parent

Post by Sophia Damilola Ajayi »

The relationship between parents and children is the earthly representation of the relationship between God and man. God made man in His own image. What does that say? He created a being that looks similar to himself. How is it that we take after our parents? God is our guardian, and comforter. Isn't that just like the relationship between a parent and a child.?
God is our provider. How is it that we depend on our parents for nearly 75 percent of everything we need on earth. Not just for material things, but for moral and emotional support, advise, cautioning guidance etc. God is love.
In essence what I'm saying is, God is our parent

That's true. When we look at God as a real person, a loving parent at that, we'll feel more comfortable relying on him. The same way we do for our. You're right, God is our parent.
I'm here for a good time, not a long time. Yolo!

I totally agree, God is our parent thus the phrase "God the Father" in the Christian belief. He created man similar to Himself in regards to us striving to act more like Him. This is so that our actions honor Him. God is our comforter because He is our Creator and Provider since everything, according to the Christian faith, is given by God. With all this being said I agree with the following statement: God is our Father.

That's true he created everyone so therefore we belong to him. I think that's a central idea in the Bible

Of course God is our parent. This time, in spiritual context. Even manifesting physically, he spiritually performs the role of a parent in our life.

When you trace everything back to the beginning, it is only logical for us to conclude that God is our first parent. God made Adam and Eve ans through then the whole human race came to be.

This is entirely true because He is our creator. He made the first man in His own image and was man's direct father. In essence He is the father to the whole human race which is the progeny of Adam.
