OUR FATHER

Good Morning!!! OUR FATHER Around the Year with Emmet Fox February 3 Now the Prayer says, not "My Father," but "Our Father," and this indicates beyond the possibility of mistake, the truth of the brotherhood of man. It forces upon our attention at the very beginning the fact that all men are the children of one Father; and that: “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus” Galatians 3:28 Here Jesus cuts away the illusion that the members of any nation, or race, or territory, or group, or class, or color, are, in the sight of God, superior to any other group. The final point is the implied command that we are to pray not only for ourselves but for all mankind. None of us lives by ourselves, however we may try. In a much more literal sense than people are aware we are limbs of one Body. "Our Father"--a spiritual explosive that will ultimately destroy every kind of human bondage.
