A Father and His Children

“When we have the same quality in us, who are we? We are like a Father and his children. The Father’s qualities are found in the children. The actions and conduct of the children are the Father’s. The Father’s property belongs to the children and the children’s property belongs to the Father. The sound of the Father is found in the children, and the sound of the children is found in the Father. The Father’s conduct is found in the children, and the children’s conduct is the Father’s. The children’s answer is the Father’s. The Father’s answer is in the children. No matter who asks a question, the children will give the answer of the Father. This is our duty. It must always be that ‘We’ are doing it. The ‘I’ should not be there. ‘I’ is for satan and ‘We’ is for God. This is our behavior and practice.
