It is very sad times when the word "Father" has become so dispised that even some churchs avoid it.

William Marrion Branham, God`s vindicated prophet for this day said.....

A THINKING MAN'S FILTER. 65-0822E. 177.
Look at this modern church. Look at their filter. You can see what they love. See what they got. The love, what do they love? Miss Laodicea which is headed for God's Judgment. That's right.

The love, the church love today is for Laodicea, a great organization, a great setup, a great, popular thing, fine-dressed people, highly cultured, full of wisdom, full of the devil, under the deceit of the church of Christ.

There's only one word ought to be in there, "Anti-Christ."

For, everything that Christ taught, they're against practically everything; right, just enough so they can call themselves that.

"Our Father", along with calling the priest "Father" was a device for providing some kind of social cohesion.

Achieving the honorary title of Father was tantamount to seeking communion with God by imitation. The purpose was to make men useful to the community by sanctifying their links with women.

Neutering God is a "bridge-too-far" for feminism. If the feminists win, men will quickly lose interest in the 'fatherhood project'. Science, art, philosophy, motorbikes, computer games and beer are more than sufficient to keep them occupied.

If they lose it shows them to be fraudulent attention-seekers who seek to replace true spirituality with the trivial materialistic needs of a minority group of privileged females.

For men it's a win-win situation.

See, Satan has deceived them into following this line of reasoning: Father = male = oppressor. Anything he can do to draw people away from God. It's an age-old goal; only the tactics are different.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people that he didn't exist.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people that he didn't exist.

Indeed, the devil knows that his days are numbered, he is now having his “Final fling”......
Revelation 12:12.
Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Quote from Daylight

Regardless that "Heavenly Father" was the term used by Christ Himself to describe God... and this church is of Christ...

Full story is here.

In not so distant future one could hazard a guess that 'Father' will be proclaimed a profanity, not suitable for public pronunciation.

It's profane when the United Church of Christ changes a very old scripture to suit feminists. What utter baloney.

Oh dear,if this carries on,they will protest themselves not only from the holy church,but also from being even Christian.

If any disagree, guess what.

Our extra-Universal Entity, which art in another Dimension, hallowed be thy nomenclature - as long as it does not favour one sex or another or race or dietary preference. Thy One World Order Presidential Republic come, thy Choices be done in every corner of the Earth with no exceptions allowed as well as in Heaven where plans and Quotas are afoot to ensure Equal compliance.

Give us this day our daily Social Benefits with annual Bonuses and forgive us our trespasses just as we used to forgive others who trespassed against us requiring us to protest in the streets and pray to You to destroyed all the deaf-shit bastards with thy thunderbolts.

I gotta slow down on the hoots.

It sounds like they want to morph a religion with an ideological cult. Result? Something that more resembles satanism!

So... these same folks will also no longer be heard speaking of 'mother Earth' and similar, yes?


No doubt that won't happen...

only do they hate men more than their own shit do the new age gals

Quote from Daylight

The left-leaning United Church of Christ now wants to be even more politically correct, and to do so its deliberative body has replaced the reference to “Heavenly Father” with the gender neutral term, “triune God,” in the denomination’s constitution.

The point here is that it is the Church that has called this change to take place. Whether through pressure or not the Church will be held accountable. As RY has said re the Church of Laodicea:

Revelations : 3:15 "I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold.
I wish you were one or the other!
3:16 But since you are like lukewarm water, I will spit you out of my mouth!

As more and more churches capitulate you will also see more and more aggressive Christians not willing to bow down, they my friends will be called radicals but they will be your new martyrs.
