There Are Two Fathers in Heaven. Which One Is Yours?

Everyone has a heavenly father. Which one do you have? There are two.

One tells you who are here to be tested, the other tells you who are here to love and be loved.

One encourages you to eat of the forbidden fruit, the other encourages you to wait and trust.

One is the “god of this world,” the other gathers a family for himself by adoption through his Only Begotten.

One tells you to hide from your history, the other tells you to own up to it and trust God for healing and forgiveness.

One tells you to get a temple recommend, the other tells you that Jesus IS your temple recommend.

One tells you to go through “priesthood authority,” the other tells you to boldly approach the throne of grace.

One tells you to pursue godhood, the other tells you to pursue humility and enjoyment of God alone.

One tells you to try filling up your cup before you arrive, the other tells you to empty your cup so he can fill it to an overflow.

One tells you to revile the lost sheep (apostates), the other tells you to pursue and understand them with love.

One tells you to sing “Praise to the Man,” the other tells you to praise the Son of Man.

One says that men become Gods, the other says that God became a man — because he loves you.

Yes, everyone has a heavenly father. But there are two heavenly fathers.
