The Gospel of Jesus Christ is not an abstract ledger, nor a philosopher’s syllogism, nor a priest’s courtroom chant. The Gospel is that God is your Father. Full stop. Any man who cannot abide this does not reject my doctrine but rejects the Son Himself, who taught us to pray, “Our Father.”
Do not let the clever ones reduce this to a calculus of debts. Atonement is not an equation written in Platonic chalk. The Son did not come to introduce jurisprudence but to reveal His Father. He did not bleed to satisfy an idea. He bled to bring you home. To know God as Father is not metaphor, not poetry, not legal fiction. It is reality. It is the one truth greater than death.
Father means origin. Father means belonging. Father means authority, correction, inheritance, love. Father means you are not an orphan. Father means you are not your own. Father means you have a name written not in law books but in blood and spirit.
The world hates this.
The philosophers prefer their impersonal god of forms. The lawyers prefer their god of statutes. The tyrants prefer their god of shadows who never descends. But the Son reveals the Father. And for this, the world crucified Him. Yet even in death He cried not, “O impersonal power,” nor “O universal principle,” but, “Father, into Thy hands I commit My spirit.”
Here is the sting: if God is your Father, then you are accountable not to abstraction but to Him. You cannot buy Him off with rituals. You cannot bribe Him with theories. You cannot evade Him by hiding in crowds. He sees you, knows you, calls you by name. You will either answer Him as prodigal, or deny Him as rebel.
The Gospel is not a treaty; it is a birthright. Not a contract; a covenant. Not a courtroom; a household. The Son opens the door, not to a bureaucracy of angels, but to the Father’s table. Sit, eat, live.
Mock this if you dare. The stones will preach it. The children will sing it. Even your heartbeat testifies it: God is yourFather. What then will you do—call Him, or run from Him?
The Gospel of Jesus Christ Is That God Is Your Father
The Kingdom is not waiting. The Father is not postponing. The Gospel is now. The door stands open. You are not called to argue. You are home.
This is simple… yet profound… thank you again and again for continuing to remind us of these truths..
