Hi gang,This is what the god of ET demands, isn't it? Yep. He demands EXTERNALISM.
If you can't love and obey him from your heart, then you'd better ACT LIKE you're doing it--or else! For eventually he'll literally FORCE all knees of all people to bow before him (against their "free will")--most of whom he and the saints will toss afterwards into the lake of fire "forever and ever."
(Know ye not that the saints shall judge the world as the Lord's co-regents?)
Uh oh... Come to think of it...
What if this very dignified and self-serving, angry little deity called "God" REALLY judges by the HEART, and not by the external appearance? What then will become of those who are merely TRYING to love and obey him out fear of being fried forever? What will happen when it is revealed that all of their "love" and "obedience" was merely external and grudgingly rendered with a fearful and reluctant heart?
The Lord loves a CHEERFUL giver, let us remember!
Methinks externalist Christians are in exceedingly DEEEP dung...
I mean they are if this ghost of a god of conditional love that Free-willist ET-ism advertises is really the one that is governing the universe... And of course if the "God" of Calvinism reigns--he already knows that those Christians who don't SINCERELY rejoice that he is burning their departed loved ones forever are not "truly" saved anyhow...
After all...
How could any true believer NOT delight in God's righteous attribute of justice, since all authentic believers are being conformed to His *HOLY* likeness?
