Come witness to us and tell us something about God your Father
that is not written in any book by another man.
Surely a true son of God will know things
about his Father that are not written in any book?
Can it not be found in the Old Testament that God lamented over Israel, even though He said that He was a Father to Israel?

When I cried out to God--not knowing He even actually existed after a long and painful downward spiral of life experiences--lo and behold, He answered. In that very instance I was caught up in the spirit above the earth in the heavens, eventually to see what appeared to be my own natural father at the top of a narrow stairway.
At the end of that supernatural encounter, I was suddenly returned to my body--with such a shot, I hit the ground (my bed actually) running and didn't stop until I was at the foot of my bed panting in a cold sweat. After which, by His divine appointment, my whole life was turned upside down...or rather right side up, and I was led to discover a Bible on a shelf as if drawn to it. I began reading and for the next week I did not stop until I had read it cover to cover; and I did not fully understand my spiritual encounter...until I got to the gospels which explained that my father in heaven, was our Father in heaven. Which gave confirmation to both my experience and to the word of God.

It is clear, you have yet to see Jesus!Come witness to us and tell us something about God your Father

God is my Father and Jesus is my brother and I am a joint heir with Him. I am also part of a Royal priesthood and if you aren't any of those things @Rabbi Reuben then perhaps you should think about how to become a child of God, then you too can call Him Father.

Amen!:
Mar_14:36 And He [ Jesus ] said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from Me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.
Rom_8:15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
Gal_4:6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of His SON into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
Amen.

It depends on just who you are referring to, the me who was born of the flesh to my earthly mother and father, or the me who yes was born (again) of the spirit of God (our Father in heaven).

Hello Rabbi, Jesus said: Ye believe in God, also believe in me.Come witness to us and tell us something about God your Father
that is not written in any book by another man.
Surely a true son of God will know things
about his Father that are not written in any book?
Do you read both Testaments?

Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us?
He spoke and I listened, though I did not always obey. He said--
"Don't talk to strangers."
Peace out Ruby.
Really? Is it because he was last seen some 2000 years ago?
I know what they who wrote what you posted said but what are you saying to me?
Are you saying to me that God is your Father?
Before you were born again of the spirit, did your spirit first die inside your body if not what happened to it?

The resurrected Jesus is present; I am in contact with him all day every day.Really? Is it because he was last seen some 2000 years ago?
Just as in kindness Jesus didn't reveal himself after his resurrection to those who orchestrated and murdered him, so too with those who dismiss his resurrected reality.
Jesus said, 'ask and it will be given, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened'......conversely, when there is no asking, no seeking and no knocking but rather an attitude to cavil, Jesus's reality remains inaccessible.
