Who is (The Christ)
Me:
I believe I’am saved by grace through faith in the finished work of Christ on the cross. That whoever believes receives the gift of eternal life.
God:
Extrapolate.
Me:
That’s it right there; that’s what your manual says, right?
God:
Child, that is just the cherry, on top of the icing, covering the cake.
Me:
You mean there’s more?
God:
Yes, a great deal more, my child.
Me:
Please extrapolate, Father.
God:
You see, your “being saved” is “the end” result of the “finished work” of the spirit of my son that I have put in you. You see, by having my son, lay down his life and surrender his spirit to me. It has allowed me to give it to anybody that wants it as a free gift.
Me:
Why?
God:
Because I created you for a reason. Life on earth is actually for a reason; it has a purpose.
Me:
Please extrapolate, Father.
God:
Because I have always had this idiot adversary that is hell-bent on controlling my domain, my existence. Determine to turn off my light and all of my attributes and make it his way. I want to kick his rear end out, FOREVER! I want to put him in his place where he belongs and deserves to be. Entirely separated by an impenetrable barrier. Are you understanding me?
Me:
I {{{BELIEVE}}} I do Father. I believe what you’re telling US is you need a certain number of free-willed souls to choose you and your will, your way of living, in order to “prime the pump” so to speak. That is going to initiate the “force” required to establish that eternal barrier between you and that idiot. That your son Jesus won that battle, you have obtained the required force. That you’re just being as merciful and as patient as you can to allow as many as possible the opportunity to receive your gift and dwell on your side of that barrier forever?
God:
BINGO!
