Divine Union

Friend, man can have Divine Union with God.

It is what God desires and why He has created man.

He has given us a free will, and from the beginning we were made for His Good Pleasure.

He was present with Adam and later Adam's helpmate, Eve and loved to communicate with them, enjoying their experiences of life in The Garden as they spoke of wonder and awe at what He had made for them.

He was their Father and He was their God. 

They had Divine Union with Him in Holy Perfection.

Yet because of the wonderful free will Holy Gift He gave to them, they became proud of their own ability to think, and work things out for themselves; determining themselves to be in no need of their Great Mentor Father God.

In her free will mindset, Eve listened to the serpent who made itself known to her and Adam.

She made a decision of her own free will to eat after being told by her Father God to never eat that fruit.

Then she convinced Adam to eat also.

Both sinned against God in unbelief of His Word, (spoken directly to them when in His Presence.)

Since that time all children born to them the first pair of humankind, have been born with a sin nature; inherited from Adam and Eve.

That's when the sin nature entered mankind! We were created Perfect with no sin or knowledge of evil; given a beautiful garden paradise to make our home. God found it sufficient for our needs or He would not have put us there. We were never meant to fall away from Him, yet He lovingly placed us there, knowing that by giving us free will we could be tempted. 

This is why He gave one command only.

The sin nature is a curse that was built into the fruit of which they partook. If they ate of the forbidden fruit, the curse woud be released into all the earth, the ground, the plants, the animals. 

After a time, God's Compassion was stirred to implement His Preconceived Plan to reclaim and reconcile all souls who loved Him, back to Himself, cleansed and in full good-standing with The Law.

He came to earth Himself, God as The Son, to pay the full price of the punishment required by Holy Law to absolve those who would come forward to be cleansed by their free will admission, repentance of their sins; and acceptance of Jesus, The One Who, paid with Holy Blood the punishment required by The Law.

Have you done this?

The Father says that His Son Jesus, is the Only Holy Way, to be Redeemed, from the Punishment of The Law for the sin against His Word.

The Punishment is Eternal separation from God after the flesh death; where there is no Holy (Perfect & Good) Life.

As for me, I want Eternal Life and the Only Way is through Jesus's Blood so I have accepted His Gift to me that cost Him great suffering and loss of His Life.

Jesus is God The Son,and He could have left us here; after visiting for a while in the flesh; and could have rose without experiencing death, to The Father to say, "None are Good, no not one so I have left them to the full punishment required by The Law." And the Father could have accepted that.

But Jesus didn't.

He went to The Cross for you, for me, for all those who will bend the knee to His Sovereignty; and have Divine Union with Him here on earth and in the Life Eternal.
