Dear Dave:
God is the Father of all mankind.
“Have we not all one Father?” Mal. 2:10.
" One is your Father which is in Heaven.” Matt. 23:9.
Is there a human parent who would torment his offspring?
Is our heavenly Abba less kind than earthly fathers are?
God is unchangeable.
“He is in one mind, and who can turn him?”
Job 23:13.
Therefore He always will be what He is now: omniscient, all-knowing, omnipotent, omni-present, infinitely good, holy, merciful, just, and the universal Father.
Our Father is not a partial Father, what He is now He will forever be!
Why are we glad that God is Almighty?
Because He is Almighty Goodness.
Why are we delighted that His understanding is infinite?
Because it is the understanding of Infinite Love.
Why are we pleased when we hear that God is Unchangeable?
Because it brings to our view a benevolence which will never vary.
Why do we rejoice that He is just?
Because we hence learn that the energy of Love will never cease to maintain and defend every thing that is right, and to oppose every thing that is wrong.
God is the Owner and Proprietor of all men.
“Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine.” Ezek. 18:4.
God is too wise and good to give any to the devil, and He has too much power to have any forced out of his hands.
As all men now belong to God they always will.
