First Try Steemin... 7 reasons for understanding God

in #gospel7 years ago (edited)
  1. God doesn't want us to suffer: But when it came to creating all things, unfortunately evil was also a byproduct. Being that Gods love is an all consuming fire, evil cannot live in or with God, because God is pure love. Even if we as sinners saw God Himself we would die. And He doesn't want that. And is doing everything necessary to ensure our survival. So God made a place where love can live amongst evil, here on earth, until evil is defeated indefinitely.

  2. The only way we can be with God: is if we are made perfect and that can only happen if Christ intervenes. And thanks to Christ, all we have to do to be sinless (pure from evil) is by accepting Him as the Son of God and being baptized, then we just need to ask God for forgiveness whenever and we will be forgiven.

  3. According to the spiritual law: blood offering is necessary for forgiveness of sins, in the old covenant we would sacrifice livestock. But in the new covenant Christ's death was a sufficient sacrifice to be the end of all blood sacrifices... God made these laws because without them His creations would have no order.

  4. Another important spiritual law: has to do with a will, a will is only valid when the person who made that will passes away. The will that God had made was one that promised us salvation through accepting Christ's proposal. And because Christ was sacrificed, it fulfilled spiritual law, validating the will of God... (Hebrews 9:16-18)

  5. We're adopted: into Christ's family and kingdom through marriage. The marriage is between the church(believers), and Christ. In a broader sense, the unification is between heaven and earth.

  6. Heaven and earth will become one: And evil will be defeated indefinitely, and we will inherit the earth as promised... Gods love is an all consuming fire, and we've been given many examples of people and even plants miraculously being made fireproof... So when God comes to dwell with His most beloved creation, we will be made fire proof, and His love will surround us for all eternity.

  7. The gospel is a story of love and marriage:.. (Traditionally) the Man leaves his fathers house to propose marriage to His love, but before He could propose, He needed to pay a dowry, for Christ that dowry was His death... But being that the Man was the Son of God, He defeated death and was risen.
    After He paid the dowry, it was necessary for Him to leave and build a new dwelling for His love. And while He's away we are to remain in faith to Him and patiently anticipate His return. But He cannot return until the new dwelling is completed. Once it's complete He can return and the marriage can then take place, then heaven and earth will be joined as one.
