Who Is Yahweh To Us?
All we need to do in order to come to the knowledge that Yahweh has never identified Himself as any God or image, is merely to study the Holy Scriptures. Through these inspired Scriptures, Yahweh identifies Himself as a very loving, patient, merciful, kind, caring Heavenly Father.
The following Scriptures should prove to us, if Yahweh has blessed our understanding, that Yahweh has identified Himself as a Father to His sons.
Luke 11:11-13__
11 If a son should ask bread from
any of you who is a father, would you give him a stone? If he
asks for a fish, would you, instead of a fish, give him a
serpent?
12 Or if he would ask for an egg,
would you offer him a scorpion?
13 If you then, being evil, know
how to give righteous gifts to your children, how much more will your
Heavenly Father give Holy Spirit to those who
ask Him?
Romans 8:15__
For you did not receive the
spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit
of adoption; sonship, by which we cry out: Abba,
Father!
We can only receive Holy Spirit upon being baptized according to the instructions given in Yahweh's Holy Scriptures. If we are baptized incorrectly (as Acts Chapters 18 and 19 state), Yahweh's Holy Spirit is just not given. Upon correct baptism, we become begotten sons of Yahweh.
Yahchanan 1:12__
But as many as received Him, to
those He gave authority to become the sons of Yahweh
to those who believe the testimony of Yahweh__
Mattithyah 23:9__
And you must not pray to or
worship any man on earth as a "Father'', for you
have only One Father, Who is in heaven.
Luke 6:36__
Therefore, be merciful, just as your
Father also is merciful.
Luke 12:32__
Do not be afraid, little flock,
for it is your Father's righteous pleasure to give you the
Kingdom.
When
Yahshua
Messiah instructed His disciples to pray, He did not instruct them to
pray to any God! Most of us are familiar with Yahshua's instructions.
Mattithyah 6:9__
After this manner; example
and general outline, you should pray: Our Father
Who is in heaven. Hallowed is Your Name.
King
David, a
man after Yahweh's own heart, was inspired by Yahweh to call Him
Father.
Psalm 89:26__
He will call out to Me; You
are my Father, O Yahweh! You are the Rock of my salvation!
Was David inspired to call Yahweh God? Did David call Him Lord? Most assuredly not. The scriptures say, David called Yahweh, Father. Yahshua Messiah also instructed us to call Yahweh our Father, if Yahweh has called us out to be one of His begotten sons. The inhabitants of the new world will also call Yahweh "My Father."
Yeremyah 3:17-19__
17 At that time Yerusalem will be
called The Throne of Yahweh, and all the nations will be gathered to
it, to the Name of Yahweh, to Yerusalem. They will no longer walk after
the imagination of their evil heart; the gods (elohim).
18 In those days the house of
Yahdah will walk with the house of Israyl, and they will come together
out of the land of the north, to the land that I have given for an
inheritance to your fathers.
19 But I said: How can I put you
among the children and give you a pleasant land, a beautiful heritage
of the hosts of the nations? And I said: You will call Me; My
Father, and not turn away from Me.
It is a scriptural fact that Satan will be bound for the duration of the Millennial Reign, and will not be able to deceive the nations then, as she is doing at this time. When Satan is bound and a seal set upon her, all the people on the Earth will call Yahweh "My Father.''
