About This Quote
The Bible says in Hebrews 5:13 that we have one Father: "For every high priest is ordained to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins." This means that God is the One who gives us life and that He is our Father. As Christians, we believe that Jesus became our Father at the time of His crucifixion, when he breathed His last breath on the cross. He took on all of our sins. He died in our place. He was buried, yet He rose again on the third day.
