The concept of a "Father of all Gods" varies by religion, but often points to a supreme creator deity like God the Father in Christianity (the first person of the Trinity, creator of all), El in Canaanite/Ugaritic pantheons (the father of the gods), or figures like Brahma (creator) or Shiva (source) in Hinduism, while Islam emphasizes Allah as One, without partners or a father, as in the Quran.
Answer. In most major monotheistic religions, such as Christianity, Islam, and Judaism, God is considered eternal and uncreated. This means that God does not have a father or any creator. God is believed to have always existed and is the source of all creation.
In Eastern Orthodox theology, God the Father is the arche or principium ("beginning"), the "source" or "origin" of both the Son and the Holy Spirit, and is considered the eternal source of the Godhead. The Father is the one who eternally begets the Son, and the Father through the Son eternally breathes the Holy Spirit.
According to Jesus, who is “the only true God”? John 17:1, 3 Father… And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the ONLY TRUE GOD, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. According to Jesus, “The only true God,” is the Father and He did not include Himself as being part of that distinction.
Because they identify Michael with Jesus, he is therefore considered the first and greatest of all God's heavenly sons, God's chief messenger, who takes the lead in vindicating God's sovereignty, sanctifying his name, fighting the wicked forces of Satan and protecting God's covenant people on earth.
A true man of God walks in integrity, humility, strength, and love — but he doesn't do it alone. He seeks God's wisdom to make the right choices, lead with discernment, and stay aligned with God's purpose.
Psalm 109 is powerful because it's a raw, honest prayer of extreme distress and betrayal, calling for God's justice against enemies, often seen as a prophetic model for spiritual warfare, divine retribution against slander, witchcraft, and curses, and a deep expression of trusting God to enact vengeance, not personal revenge, especially recognized for its Messianic implications regarding Judas's betrayal. It's considered a potent prayer because it allows believers to voice deep anger and despair, turning the situation over to God for divine intervention, believing God will reverse evil and punish the wicked.
Yes, for the vast majority of Christians, Jesus is considered to be both fully God and fully human, a concept known as the Hypostatic Union, meaning He is one person with two natures, divine and human, and is the incarnation of God. This core belief, rooted in the Trinity doctrine (one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), is supported by biblical passages where Jesus is called God, accepts worship, and performs divine works, while also experiencing human needs like hunger and weariness.
She had no other children and never engaged in the marital act with Joseph. Sometimes this is confusing since there are references in the Scriptures to Jesus' brothers and sisters.
We ask, "If all things have a creator, then who created God?" Actually, only created things have a creator, so it's improper to lump God with his creation. God has revealed himself to us in the Bible as having always existed. Ray Comfort, author and evangelist, writes: No person or thing created God.
Most prayer is directed to God the Father. Jesus teaches us to pray to the Father, and He prays to the Father throughout His time on Earth (John 16:23 and John 17:1-26).
Jesus is the ultimate firstborn (a title applied to him by Paul). The gospel authors never refer directly to Jesus as God's firstborn, but they do refer to him as the Son of God, a title that connects to the theme of the firstborn.
No One Created God
That origin or source is God. He was there at the beginning of all things. But he himself was not made by another being. Consider Paul's words in Colossians 1:17, “He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.” Everything we can see—and all that we cannot—comes from God.
Translation: "In this way, the one supreme entity divides itself into three forms—Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh (Shiva)—taking on different aspects.
Jesus loves each of us and wants to know us, and for us to grow through knowing and loving Him. In the New Testament book of Mark, the very first words are, “The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God” (Mark 1:1, NKJV). Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, is the Son of God.
Christian canonical scriptures do not record the death or Dormition of Mary. Hippolytus of Thebes, a 7th- or 8th-century author, writes in his partially preserved chronology of the New Testament that Mary lived for 11 years after the death of Jesus, dying in AD 41.
Joseph has one wife, Asenath the daughter of Potiphar the priest of On, whom he marries in Egypt. She gives birth to two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh. Since in the Bible, unlike in later Jewish law, ethnic identity is determined by the father, the fact that their mother is not an Israelite does not affect their status.
Jacob and Rachel had 14 children and grandchildren. Their son Joseph was already in Egypt, where he had married Asenath, daughter of Potiphera, the priest of Heliopolis.
The majority of prominent conceptions of God explicitly or effectively posit a being whose existence is not testable either by proof or disproof. Therefore, the question of God's existence may lie outside the purview of modern science by definition.
Jesus prayed to God the Father because it was an appropriate, natural, and essential part of His mission on earth. His prayers set an example for us to grow in intimacy with our Heavenly Father.
We know that the LORD is the only true God because He is always faithful to do what He says He will do. False gods have no power to keep their word. God, whenever He has spoken — either through Himself, angels, or men — every word has proven to be reliable (Hebrews 2:2a).
Psalm 91:9-11 (9) Because you have made the Lord , [who is] my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place, (10) No evil will befall you, Nor will any plague come near your tent. (11) For He will command His angels in regard to you, To protect and defend and guard you in all your ways [of obedience and services].
It changes the way you see the world.
One of the consistent messages throughout the Psalms is that God is sovereign over all.
Psalm 109, the angry psalm, is basically praying what the widow said to the judge, and what Jesus urged us to pray and not give up. “God, I want your justice against my enemy, I want you to repay my enemies for what they did to me.” One more NT prayer against enemies: Revelation 6.
