Correction...

I made a slight mistake in the last post about "God the Father" being translated "God the Parent" in the Holman Christian Standard Bible. 1 John 5:1 (HCSB) says, "and everyone who loves the parent also loves his child." Well, the word translated as parent is literally, "he who begats". Parent is a legitimate translation.

I should have translated the verse before making the remark.
