Raising Children In God's Will (097) Chapter 2. Children's Love and Parents' Love Section 3. The Foundation of the Universe -The Father-Son Relationship
3) The Substance of the Father-Son Relationship - 5
The father-son relationship is an above and below relationship. That is why, when the son says to his father, "Father, give me your position for once. I want to be in your position," the father cannot say, "No son, I can't do that." Because God is absolute, you must consider this as well.
So, it cannot be a problem for God when he thinks, in what position should he place man? God put man in a position where the rank is above and below but, in real life, also in before and after, and in and out relationships exist.
You must consider these elements when you think about the answer to the question, "Where should God exist?" So, in order to be in an in and out relationship, where should God exist? God is a shapeless God, but in what position should he be with man?
He cannot always be in the above position. He cannot always be in the upper position. That is why we need the father-son relationship. (40- 342)
