No. But I am saying that one must be very careful about making claims based on English terminology when that terminology is used in many different contexts throughout Scripture. The claim that since we are called sons of God, then God wants to be our close fellowship relationship daddy, must be examined in the light of all the other individuals throughout Scripture who are also called sons of God. The example used does not justify the point.
