I feel if you can forgive your earthly father for whatever may have occurred, you will have a better relationship with your heavenly Father,it took me years to come to grips with this
I am very thankful on this Father’s Day that my own father was nothing like Christian God. The Christian God, this so-called father, demands utter worship from his “children“ or he will torture them for all of eternity. That is not a father. That is a deranged, ego testicle mania. Even if one of my children turned away from me hated my guts, I would still want the best for them, but I would not send them to an eternity of torture in a place that I made. I can’t believe I believed that for so many years.
