You are yet to mention what only one spiritual father can do well.

All the benefits of spiritual father mentioned here can come from more than one person.

Having many spiritual fathers is good if the spiritual fathers have the same mindset or mission. For instance, we have God, Jesus Christ and Holy spirits.

Having many spiritual fathers will be bad if the fathers' missions are not the same.

RhemaJet7:
I gave a scripture that you may have multiple Mentors but you cannot have more than one Spiritual Father, thus:

Corinthians 4:15-17

15. Even if you had ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.

16. I urge you to imitate me.

17. For this reason I have sent to you Timothy, my son whom I love, who is faithful in the Lord. He will remind you of my way of life in Christ Jesus, which agrees with what I teach everywhere in every church.

Regarding the benefits, I have given enough info on that.
God back and read

immortalcrown:
Having multiple spiritual fathers is not bad, unless the fathers do not have the same mission of serving God in spirit and truth.

You are misinterpreting the scriptures you quote in your post.

If we are to follow your interpretation, we do not need any human as spiritual father because God is already our father. Your scriptural quotes do not even recommend any human as our spiritual father. According to your scriptural quotes, Timothy is sent as a teacher, not as a father.

merrymike47:
You fit get 100million spiritual fathers make you still get a semi-detached bungalow for hell fire .. Jesus took to himself God as his father and also gave himself to twelve as a father. It sounds more like one being confused or being a prostitute to be having many fathers.

In simple terms, there are times I listen to bishop oyedepo's sermon and also jump on daddy Adeboye's message, but that do not make them my spiritual fathers. That particular one that I follow his pattern, through thick and thin is my father.

RhemaJet7:
As you follow multiple Church leaders (Bishop Oyedepo, Pastor E.A. Adeboye, and others) you cannot personally choose a Father among them, if you choose wrongly, you're LOST.
When you're lost, you loose Spiritual Coverings.
Only God assigns a Spiritual Father to a believer in purpose.
That is my own personal experience.
Holy Spirit taught me this.
And it's in line with scripture, thus:

Corinthians 4:15-17

15. Even if you had ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.....

RhemaJet7:
Paul was a Spiritual Father to Timothy, in the scripture I gave, Jesus sent Timothy to him as a Son in the faith.

Paul confirmed it in the following scripture:

1 Timothy 1:2

Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.

I repeat, YOU CAN NOT HAVE MORE THAN ONE SPIRITUAL FATHER, BUT YOU CAN HAVE MULTIPLE MENTORS.

If you think I am wrong, prove it with a scripture, I proved mine, and that is the TRUTH.

If you choose a wrong person as your Spiritual Father, YOU ARE LOST!

I am speaking from experience, inspired by the Holy Spirit .

When you're filled by the Holy Spirit, the Spirit / anointing will teach you all things, even the deep things of God.
1 Corinthians 2:10.

A life without divine guidance, is a life in chaos.

Seek the in-filling of the Holy Spirit today, and become wiser

merrymike47:
It's a good thing that we both agreed on the point of one spiritual father instead of many.

On the issue of choosing, yes I can choose one for myself as far as the spirit of God inside of me is still very active. Or let me ask, how do God assign a spiritual father to an individual?

RhemaJet7:
From my experience, GOD ASSIGNS A SPIRITUAL FATHER TO A BELIEVER THROUGH DREAMS, VISION, AND TRANCES.
ISome of the ways of descending a revelation whether it is from God or devil.
(1) If it is from God, the revelation will be Progressive or continuous.

(2) If it is from God, the revelation must be linked to scripture(s)

Pastor E.A. Adeboye is my own revealed Spiritual Father.

I started dreaming about him since either late 2018 or early 2019, shortly after I was ordained directly by God as a Major Prophet in a dream. Jeremiah 1:5.
(1) The first dream, I saw myself assisting Pastor E.A. Adeboye as his Subordinate, going somewhere, but I noticed my leg was not touching ground, and I was moving faster

(2) Second dream, I attended a church program where Mummy Adeboye was ministring, and I performed one Spiritual exercise with white handkerchief

(3) Third dream, I saw their Son, Leke Adeboye

(4) Forth dream, I interacted with Pastor Adeboye again, I suddenly saw his photo on my book cover, I showed him, he got surprised.

(5) Fift dream, very recent, Pastor Adeboye and I among some other people like 8 were in a building within a place like Redemption Camp, Pastor Adeboye went upstairs, I was waiting for him downstairs to lead him to probably his house within the Camp, as he came down, suddenly, he complained about back pain, and wanted to collapse, I have to hold him, so, he rested on my arms, and I shouted THIS IS A WITCHCRAFT ATTACK!
I asked one of the people in the room to give me water to give him, someone brought the water, I gave him, he drank it, then, I prayed for him, saying YOU SHALL LIVE, YOU SHALL NOT DIE IN JESUS NAME (Psalm 118:17) then, I shouted, ordered everyone within the room to vacate the room and leave only Daddy G.O. and I alone, then, I challenged the witches responsible for the attack to show up for me to combat them, then, I woke up.

Immediately I woke up, I was able to interpret the dream that GOD WANTS ME TO BE INTERCEDING FOR PASTOR ADEBOYE AS I PRAYED FOR HIM IN A DREAM, ATTEMPTED TO FIGHT FOR HIM.
So, I started interceding for him professionally, him and his family on daily basis.
Progressive revelation, Holy Spirit confirmed it, as He instructed me to be interceding for him.
Being a Senior Pastor doesn't mean that he doesn't need the prayers of his younger ones, even, in bible Moses, despite being a prophet, he needed the help of Aaron to help him raise his hand during a battle with their enemies before he could succeed.
If you check my previous topics on Nairaland, you will see a thread I specially created, interceding for Pastor E.A. Adeboye and his family.

That's how God works.

These are the ones I can remember, however, I also had a dream or other dreams about the church RCCG.

So, these dreams and the scriptures quoted, are enough evidence that Daddy G.O. and I have something in common, are on the same journey, same family, he is my Spiritual Father, but he doesn't know me in real life

So, this is how you can identify your Spiritual Father,through REVELATIONS and scriptures, NOT by choosing him by yourself without being guided spiritually.

A life without divine guidance, is a life in chaos.

There is a type of Anointing called, Abiding Anointing, when you have it, He will teach you all truth, train you to disregard FALSE TEACHING / DOCTRINE from men.

By the grace of God, I have the Abiding Anointing, and that is what keeps me going.

Anchor Scripture:

1 John 2:27:

As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, remain in him".

Seek the in-filling of the Holy Spirit today, and become wiser.

But YOU HAVE TO BE BORN AGAIN and DO WATER BAPTISM before you can be filled with the Holy Spirit

merrymike47:
It's good to hear about your experience. But you see, God is good at doing things in his own way, nobody tells him what to do or how to do it. God can choose to show you via dream/trance as you stated it up there and for another person(s), he can choose to convince him/her through other route.

I think all that mattered here is the SPIRIT OF GOD, through which God does his conviction. God knows too well that dreams can be manipulated, sounds can be manipulated, etc... but when it comes to spiritism, it can only be the spirit of God or the spirit of devil, it can never be manipulated, provided we have discernment.

RhemaJet7:
I don't have strength for argument.

I believe I have taught you enough, whether you believe it or not, it's left for you.

But note this:

If you're WILLING and OBEDIENT, you will eat the good things of the land.
Isaiah 1: 16

merrymike47:
It funny how you are seeing this as an argument 😂. Take your time and read my quotes again, I didn't argue with you, I infact supported some of your points then added that God uses whatever means he choose to convince people, not necessarily by dreams/trance. To avoid misunderstandings, let's stop it here. May God increase you on all sides, amen. Peace

RhemaJet7:
One of the tactics Satan uses to confuse people about a Spiritual Father, so, that the people can loose Spiritual Coverings, is this type of arguments, so, that the people will be led astray, by choosing wrong person as their Spiritual Father or not having any Father at all, so that they will not be under any Spiritual Covering,

The implications of not being under Spiritual Coverings of a Father:

It gives room for DANGER.
Satan can easily launch attack against the fellow successfully.
God will not intervene because He has sent a Prophet to teach you all you need to know about Spiritual Fatherhood, BUT YOU IGNORED HIS MESSAGE, therefore, you will not eat the good things of the land.
Isaiah 1:16

If you're WILLING and OBEDIENT, you will eat the good things of the land.
Isaiah 1:16.

A life without divine guidance, is a life in chaos.

Remain ever blessed.

Jesus is Lord.

INTRODUCTION

Who is a Spiritual Father?

A spiritual father is a mature Christian leader who provides mentorship, covering, doctrinal guidance, and accountability to foster a believer’s spiritual maturity.

Can a believer have more than one Spiritual Father?
No,
You can have multiple Mentors or Guardians in Christ, but you can not have more than one Father.

1 Corinthians 4:15-17

15. Even if you had ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.
1 Corinthians 4:17

16. I urge you to imitate me.

17. For this reason I have sent to you Timothy, my son whom I love, who is faithful in the Lord. He will remind you of my way of life in Christ Jesus, which agrees with what I teach everywhere in every church.

How To Identify Your Spiritual Father?

For the fact that you worship in a church does not mean that the Overall Head of that church is automatically your Spiritual Father.
Only Jesus Christ assigns a Spiritual Father to a believer.
Your Spiritual Father may be the Over Head of your former Church or someone else.
It can as well be the Overall Head of your current church.
To identify your Spiritual Father, therefore, you have to seek the help of the Holy Spirit to reveal him to you.
You can have multiple Mentors or Guardians in Christ, but you can not have more than one Spiritual Father.
Another thing about a Spiritual Father, is that, your Spiritual Father may not even know you from Adam, but in dreams, you will be interacting with each other.
He is the foundation for your calling.

If you choose a wrong person as your Spiritual Father, YOU ARE LOST!

I am speaking from experience, inspired by the Holy Spirit .

When you're filled by the Holy Spirit, the Spirit / anointing will teach you all things, even the deep things of God.
1 Corinthians 2:10.

A life without divine guidance, is a life in chaos.

Seek the in-filling of the Holy Spirit today, and become wiser.

Benefits of having a Spiritual Father:

(1) Spiritual Coverings: A man without a Spiritual Father is running a risk.
Spiritual Father provides coverings that no other person can provide

(2) Empowerment: Impartation of anointing

(3) A Life of Maximum Grace

(4) Spiritual Maturity and Mentorship: They act as coaches, building character and discipline, similar to the relationship between Paul and Timothy.

(5) Guidance and Protection: They offer protection (like a shepherd) and, through their experience, help navigate life's decisions, preventing mistakes and fostering growth.

(6) Impartation of Maximum Grace: They pass down spiritual authority, mantles, and insights gained from their own walk with God.

(7) Accountability and Covering: They provide a safe space for correction and prayer, covering you spiritually and creating a strong foundation for your calling.

( Identity and Legacy: They help clarify your calling, often providing a "spiritual family" and ensuring the continuation of godly values and legacy.

(9) Opportunities for Growth: They provide platforms to serve and develop your skills.

Seek the help of Holy Spirit today, to reveal your Spiritual Father to you.

God bless you.

HOWEVER, IF YOU'RE YET TO BE BORN AGAIN,
THE BEST TIME TO DO THAT IS NOW,
KINDLY FOLLOW MY INSTRUCTIONS BELOW:

(1) Repent today

(2) Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Personal Saviour

(3) Do Water Baptism: at this stage, you shall receive gifts from the Holy Spirit.

Having done all these, then, you shall be saved, be cleansed, experience the peace of God, and secure ETERNITY.

John 14:6

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

And guess what? There is no sin that God can not handle, whether you're a Murderer, an Armed Robber, a Prostitute or whatsoever, the moment you have repented, God is always available to receive you, forgive you and shall bless you and you shall have peace in Him.
God is a Father, and He is full of mercy.
God does not want the death of any sinner, He loves you unconditionally.

Every sinner has a hope,

Every sinner has a future.

Say This Prayer After Me Wholeheartedly:

Lord Jesus, thank you for this Gift of Salvation, I am sorry for all the sins I have committed, today, I accept you as my Lord and Personal Saviour, I surrender everything unto you, let your Spirit begin to lead me, guide me, today, I am born again and I promise never to go back to sin anymore, help me Lord, in Jesus Mighty name, amen!

As you have prayed, so shall it be in Jesus Mighty name, amen!

Congratulations!

Luke 15:7

I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.

Look for a Bible believing church around you and be worshipping there.

At your church, join any Service Unit of your choice and be serving God there, serve with your money, time or other resources.

Continue to love God, seek Him diligently, then you will become more precious to God, and He will be committed to reward you abundantly both on earth and in heaven.
Hebrews 11:6, Matthew 6: 33.

Wise up!

Anchor Scriptures:

Ephesians 2: 21, Exodus 32: 9-10, Philippians 3: 20-21, John 3:31.

The task of rebuilding the Kingdom of God, is every Believer's responsibilities.

Let's therefore, rise up and build.

United we stand, divided we fall.

God bless you.

I glory in Holy Spirit.

God is good, faithful, and awesome.

Unto Him alone be the glory forever, amen!

Mat 23:8-10:
"But be not you called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all you are brothers. And call no man your father on the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. Neither be you called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ."

paxonel:
What do a Christian need a spiritual father for? It's not necessary

RhemaJet7:
Spiritual Fatherhood is very important.
As a believer, if you don't have a Father, you're running a risk, exposed to DANGER.
The type of Spiritual Coverings a Father provides, no one can provide it.

Below, is a scripture for Spiritual Fatherhood:

1 Thessalonians 2:11-12

For you know that we dealt with each of you as a father deals with his own children,

encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and glory.

Shalom

RhemaJet7:
The problem here is, understanding of English Language, understanding of scripture, and discernment of the Spirit

The word, "Father" you quoted, is referred to Heavenly Father, the Father I'm referring to, is a Spiritual Father.

There are many types of father, we also have Biological Father

And more over, you cannot fully understand the scriptures except the Holy Spirit helps you to interpret it.
That is why I keep urging you guys to seek the in-filling of the Holy Spirit, He will teach you many things, even the deep things.
But you have to be born again before Holy Spirit can dwell in you richly.

If Established Institutions like Pastor E.A. Adeboye, Bishop David Oyedepo, etc, can admit that they have Spiritual Fathers, how on earth will you say there is nothing called Spiritual Father?

Hosea 4:6

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.

A life without divine guidance, is a life in chaos.

Scripture for Spiritual Fatherhood:

1 Thessalonians 2:11-12

For you know that we dealt with each of you as a father deals with his own children,

encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and glory.

Shalom

Thank you for this scripture. I thought I was the only one who had that scripture in mind concerning the topic of this thread. Paul's writings okays having spiritual fathers, but Jesus frowns against it in Matthew 23. When there are contradictions like that in the bible, I choose to go with the words of Jesus, not Paul.

Where were all these differentiated without ambiguity in the Bible?

RhemaJet7:
There must be a lot of ambiguous words in the bible, I repeat, only Holy Spirit can help a man to interpret scriptures for better UNDERSTANDING

AntiChristian:
Was the Bible written with the holy spirit?

If yes, give a proof Luke was written on the influence of the spirit?
