You don't know that God the Father did not become human at some point, Jesus did and He is a God. Jesus is also from everlasting to everlasting. Jesus is the only Son begotten in the flesh as He has NO earthly father. That being said we all have one Father:
(New Testament | Matthew 23:8 - 10)
8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.
(Old Testament | Psalms 82:6)
6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.
The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are one in unity, glory, and perfection:
(New Testament | Ephesians 4:13 - 14)
13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
(New Testament | John 17:21 - 23)
21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
Joseph Smith like any false prophets proved he was a false apostle bringing the doctrines as commandments of men . The last prophet bringing new prophecy was John . It makes it easy to try the spirits whether earthly of men or inspired of God above not seen His doctrine failing down like rain on mankind .
When looking at the word of God (sola scriptura) and trying the spirits to see if inspired from above unseen, or temporal earthly as that of men seen . Some destroyed the true meaning of the word apostle which simply is "sent one" with no other meaning it means exactly that "sent ones".
It does not mean venerable ones needed in a government of a hierarchy of corrupted sinful men . I would think Christians led by the Spirit of Christ. . the Holy Spirit of faith would perform the good work commanded by our loving Father to try the spirits through His Spirit as it is written. . comparing the unseen understanding revealed by God working in us to the same understanding of faith. . not by human eye or ear seen .
His working in us, with us making the burden lighter and giving us a future hope beyond the grave .The gospel
Remember the Son of man, Jesus who replied "not my will but your will my Father be done . Jesus as a prophet declared the word of the father. The Lord informs us the flesh of the Son of man Jesus profits for nothing in John 6 .
What did profit was the unseen Father strengthening the Son pouring out His Spirit essence of life in jeopardy of his own Spirit life to show the work that brings the peace of God according to His understanding.. The propmised demonstration Isaiah 53 . Two working to bring peace . Loving authority, the greater (position not person) Father not seen plus the willing sufferer the Son of man Jesus seen , the work of one ministry.
Again the flesh did not profit .God is not a man he poured out his spirit life for mankind. When a person makes it about literal flesh and blood they miss the gospel understanding hid in parables .they teach us how to walk by faith just as intended by the faithful and true author .of. . as it is written
Matthew 26:39 And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
Salvation has nothing to do with the temporal rudiments of this world. " corrupted flesh and blood"...that in which the eyes see and touch of human flesh could offer. they are not of our Father but of this temporal world .
1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
What we do hear or see. It must be mixed with faith as it is written (sola scriptura) coming from the unseen father the unseen teaching authority
The commandment to call no man on earth Good teaching Master, Lord of lords and King of kings has to do with trying to establish a hierarchy of men where venerable are served by non venerable defines the abomination of desolation
.The things of mankind seen in the place of the unseen father's hidden glory .making the unseen things of faith as it is written without effect.
Even the Son of man when accused of being the Good teaching Master as Lord refused mankind to glory in his flesh. He rather gave glory to the unseen father. Saying. . .Only one is our Good teaching Master, God.
Mark 10:17-18 King James Version (KJV) And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.
We are warned of those who would seduce those who do abide in the final warning in Revelation 22 . Not to add or subtract from the whole or perfect word of God.
Why even desire to go above all things written in the law and the prophets? We are to abide in Him as he teaches us .Say far away from a hierarchy of men the upside down form of government.
The first century reformation is still doing it work of restoring the government of God, the peace that surpasses our understanding.. As his understanding alone. (Sola scriptura) No extra oral traditions of men (I heard it through the grape vine, like the book of Mormon or other books that claim to come along side the Bible as a secret or mysterious aid. .(Did God say you will not die? Look at me and live. They obeyed and looked, the glory of God departed their nakedness' became apparent they tried to cover up that which was private .
The last chapter in the book of the law the bible is still Revelation 22. There are no laws missing by which we could know God more adequately .The 7 seals remain intact until the last day under the Sun.
