ok
@Blueberry , I'm back from errands.
I need to do some major clarification on after-life things. Ok what I
do believe--
Today, the Father is my Father. Christ is the Son of God and my Savior. God is my Lord, whom I praise on my knees and am absolutely helpless without. The Father and Son are both Perfect--- without any sin or blemish. They have perfect love of people, mercy, sense of justice, knowledge, will, righteousness etc.
Right now, I am a sinner. I in NO way have infinite love or justice. In fact sometimes I do things which are just downright unrighteous and sinful- and even smile when I do it. It is downright impossible for me to get out of this hole by myself. I am in DESPERATE need of a Savior. Jesus Christ is my Savior. I root my faith in Him. I embrace Him, and rejoice in Him, (try) to follow His ways, and repent when I (pretty regularly) screw up.
I do believe that God has infinite power. He has the power to save a wretch like me. His infinite power and sacrifice have the power to wash away all of the bloody filth on and in me, until I am perfectly clean. Perfectly clean. I believe that God has the pwoer to completely change my heart and burn away the desire for sinful things until only His perfect will remains. His perfect will. Filling me up with His perfect love and desires. Transforming me until I have the exact same perfect love of people, mercy, sense of justice, knowledge, will, righteousness, etc that the Father and Son and Spirit have. Or in other words, until I am totally like them.
And of course, the entire time (before, during, and afterwards) I shall continue to praise Him and He shall forever be my Lord.
My belief is focused on
God's infinite saving power -- His ability to transform a wretched sinner into a completely perfected person, even as He is. This belief is entirely focused on worship of God. It's not about boosting myself. It's not about planets or super-powers or or stuff like that--- in fact, I find those things trivial subject that don't remotely matter. Nor is it about me replacing my Father or Savior-- our bond shall forever be, in fact only deepen in love and devotion.
