ENGLISH #FathersAndLoyalty-30.Quote:“Any of these callings (of God) can take on the cloak of fatherhood. Fatherhood adds an extra dimension of love to whichever calling of ministry you have.”–Bishop Dag Heward-Mills. Today’s Study Book – Fathers and Loyalty by Dag Heward-Mills. Chapter - 2 Study Subject - How to Recognize and Receive Different Fathers at the Different Seasons of Life Memory Verse - “For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet HAVE YE NOT MANY FATHERS: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel." 1 Corinthians 4:15 (KJV) Let us conclude our study by reviewing these five quotes from the author, Dag Heward-Mills. How to Identify a Father 1. “Fathers have a wider scope of concern for your life. Their input goes beyond even what they say. You will discover that their ministry cares for you totally. Their ministry has an uncanny wide-ranging effect on your life.” 2. “One of the keys to recognizing a father is to recognize the love, care and direction of our Heavenly Father being transmitted through him to your life.” 3. “When you come across someone who has a wide-ranging influence on your life, you have probably met one of the fathers God has ordained for you.” How to Receive a Father 1. “Some people make the mistake of receiving their fathers as mere teachers. They do this by not embracing all the fatherly input coming their way. By receiving only a part of the input of these fathers, we often reduce the role of fathers to mere instructors.” What are these inputs that come our way that we are to embrace fully? 2. “In the natural, your biological father affects you in many ways. He teaches you how to eat, how to dress and how to live. He gives you wisdom, advice and little lessons for life. He sets an example for you to follow and serves as a source of inspiration and direction.” To be continued ...
