Excerpt from The Christian Father: What He Should Be, and What He Should Do; Together With a Collection of Prayers Suitable to His Condition
And when by sin they lost this high privilege of being children of God, he himself, in the second person of the Trinity, came down upon earth and re stored to them that holy prerogative. This was the precious fruit of the life, and works, the suffering and death of the Redeemer. As many as believed in him, to them he gave power to be come children of God. God was, and is again in the fullest sense of the word, Father of all those who in the holy 'chur'ch are reborn children of God. Our divine Redeemer taught us to know him again as Father. He called him Our heavenly Father Our Father who art in heaven. In like manner should his faithful disciples, following his example, address him when they pray, as Our Father who art in heaven. God, the Father of men! As many as are born again of water and the Holy Ghost are his chil dren, and he is their Father.
