Can a father alone have a child? Without a mother, children do not exist; without children, a man cannot have the title of <i>father<\/i>. The title of <i>father<\/i> can only be established when there is a <i>mother<\/i>. Therefore, the title of <i>God the Father<\/i> reveals the existence of <i>God\u2019s children<\/i> and <i>God the Mother<\/i> as well. The Bible testifies that our Mother is in heaven (Gal 4:26).
