No, in fact, it is heretic, and I'm going to prove it with one Scripture - Matthew 23 vs 9: • “And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.” (KJV) • “And do not call anyone [in the church] on earth father, for you have one Father, Who is in heaven.” (AMP) • “Don't set people up as experts over your life, letting them tell you what to do. Save that authority for God; let him tell you what to do. No one else should carry the title of "Father'; you have only one Father, and he's in heaven.” (MSB) • “And don't address anyone here on earth as 'Father,' for only God in heaven is your spiritual Father.” (NLT) If therefore Jesus has said so, why then do we disobey Him? Please ponder on these words. Remain blessed in Jesus' name, amen! #EvangelistGlobal
I respect all men of God but in all honesty, this Spiritual father theology is a lie from hell and I'm going to prove it with one Scripture - Matthew 23 vs 9: • “And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.” (KJV) • “And do not call anyone [in the church] on earth father, for you have one Father, Who is in heaven.” (AMP) • “Don't set people up as experts over your life, letting them tell you what to do.

@@Prophetdanielanaiye read that verse in the Amplified Version: “And do not call anyone [in the church] on earth father, for you have one Father, Who is in heaven.” - Matthew 23:9 AMP Notice the words in brackets [in the church]. It doesn't say [at home]. Check it through all Amplified translations. It's the same. The word ‘father’ comes from the Greek word ‘pater’ from where we get the English word ‘paternal’ or ‘paternity’ and it means ‘source or sustainer’ or ‘father parent’. It means someone who begets you and sustains you. That's why God permits us to address our biological parents as ‘father’ and ‘mother’ because we came from their loins and wombs, and they sustained us throughout our premier years in this life. Spiritually, God takes that position as ‘Father’ because we are born of God and it's God that keeps us. The NLT of that verse puts it straight: “…for only God in Heaven is your Spiritual father.” The term ‘Spiritual father’ literally doesn't refer to a human being at all, rather it refers to a spirit being playing the role of a father in a man's life. When someone says “I have a spiritual husband or spiritual wife”, did he refer to his pastor's wife? No, he's referring to a spirit. That's the same for fatherhood. God is a Spirit, and the Father of spirits. Therefore only He is your Spiritual father.
