What is God's plan?

posted by jvbanay2 in: Bible

In the very beginning God said, "Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shalll become one flesh" - for the purpose of filling the earth (Gen. 2:24).  Mankind was created to build a familiar relationships, to have children and nurture those children with express purpose of enabling God through Jesus Christ to bring many to glory - to salvation in His Kingdom (Heb. 2:10).

 

God expects fathers to play a critical role in His great plan.  The Bible unequivocally defines the family as a unit headed by a father and mother with the father occupying the primary leadership role.

 

The apostle Paul provides guidance that is essential in building a strong father-daughter relationship:  "And, [you] fathers, provoke not your children to wrath:  but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. (Eph. 6:4)
