The Father's Face
A Portrait of God Drawn Exclusively from the Words of Jesus BY DIESEL THE MAGUS · EFIRE TEMPLE · THE OLDEST FLAME This portrait has one rule. Every characteristic of God described here is drawn from the direct speech of Jesus as recorded in the four Gospels. Nothing else. Not the letters that followed. Not the councils that came centuries later. Not the theologians who built on top of those councils. Only what Jesus said, in his own words, about the one he called Father.

A Portrait of God Drawn Exclusively from the Words of Jesus BY DIESEL THE MAGUS · EFIRE TEMPLE · THE OLDEST FLAME This portrait has one rule. Every characteristic of God described here is drawn from the direct speech of Jesus as recorded in the four Gospels. Nothing else. Not the letters that followed. Not the councils that came centuries later. Not the theologians who built on top of those councils. Only what Jesus said, in his own words, about the one he called Father. The portrait that emerges is one most have never seen assembled in one place. When you listen to him — specifically and only about the Father — a God appears whose nature is consistent, ancient, and recognizable. He is not a new God. He is the one who was always there. Jesus did not invent him. Jesus pointed at him. I. The Father Is Greater "The Father is greater than I." — John 14:28 Five words. No qualification.
