Hello,** Gabriel of 12, you have bypassed my question. Please see my post again and let me know which of these things is true, or wrong? See again. You have not replied why Jesus called God his Father.
Let us examine why Jesus used to call The God as his Father.
The Catholics should please tell which of the above is true and add any more reasons to the list as you like. Welcome. Thanks **.
- Was it because of love of God?
- Was it because of fear of God?
- Was it because God was really his Father?
- Was it because he was Created by God?
- Was it because Jesus was begotten by God?
- Yes. He called His Father “Abba.” This is a form of endearment like “Dad.” The only time He did not call Him “Abba” was when He was praying the words of Psalm 22:1 on the cross.

Code:
No. Perfect Love casts out fear. (1 John 4:18) Jesus' love for His Father was perfect. Jesus had no fear of His Father. -
Code:
Yes. (John 10:30, Matthew 10:33) -
Code:
The Word of God (God the Son) existed from the beginning. He is Divine (God). He is one of the three Persons of the Godhead (Divinity) whom we call God. The other two Persons are God the Father and God the Holy Spirit. (John 1:1-5, Matthew 28:19) Jesus is the Word made flesh (John 1:14) and He was made a little lower than the angels (Hebrews 2:9) in order to have a human body so that He could die for us. He did not lose His Divinity; however, His power was limited to the "will of His Father" for every moment of His human life **before** His death on the cross. (John 5:30, Matthew 12:50, Matthew 7:21) He regains all of His power and glory after His resurrection and ascension into heaven. (Hebrews 1:1-4, Jude 1:25) -
Code:
The **Word** was/is the only begotten Divine Son of God. When He also became flesh as **Jesus**; He was still a Divine being but He now has two natures: divine and human. He will be this way for all eternity since He now has an immortal body because of His resurrection and ascension from the dead. (John 20:16-17, John 5:21, Romans 8:11)
