For their prayer and worship, humans seek a being who:
- Can hear and respond reliably,
- Cannot be overruled by anyone else, and
- Provides a permanent, stable focus for prayer and worship.
In other words, humans sensibly seek the topmost, ultimate beingas the recipient of devotion—and that requires creatorship, and ultimate authority as the one true God.
Jesus Christ came, sent by the Father, to testify that the Father is this very being, this one true God.
