    We men and boys are Two Fathers going through Two Phases required by God’s Holy Word. We are either a father doing what God has instructed us to do, or we are a father-to-be learning by discipline how to someday be a father after God’s own heart.

Let me say, that in heaven there is only one Father, and that is God himself, but my dad recently went there, and so while I am on this earth, I have two fathers in Heaven now.
