30 I and the Father are one."
8 "But you are not to be called 'Rabbi,' for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers.
9 And do not call anyone on earth 'father,' for you have one Father, and he is in heaven.
53 Do you think I cannot call on my Father, and he will at once put at my disposal more than twelve legions of angels?
32 He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all —how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?

13 As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him;
14 for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust.

1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
2 "Honor your father and mother" —which is the first commandment with a promise —
3 "so that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth." [1]
4 Fathers, "do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.
19 The living, the living —they praise you, as I am doing today; parents tell their children about your faithfulness.
