God called Abram out of his earthly father’s household (Gen 20:13; 24:7), so that he might become Abraham, the father of the faithful (Rom 4:16-17). Christ Jesus, the Son of God, promised his apostles that He was going to the Father (Jn 14:12), preparing a place for them (Jn 14:3) that they may be in the Father as He is and that the Father may be in them (Jn 14:17, 20, 23). Paul tells Timothy that the church is – God, the Father’s Household!
If we have wandered from our Father’s house, we should return. If we are still living in the household of the world, we should leave it and find fellowship, grace, and peace in God the Father’s household (Lk 15:17; Gen 20:13; Gal 1:3-4).
