God loves us, and wants us to be just like Him, even better!!!
God has found out how to have Eternal Joy, and wants to share the secret with us, so we may have Eternal Joy also, even Greater Joy than what He has, than what He experiences.
All He wants is, for us to experience greater joy than what He experiences, as any loving parents want for their children. And to do this, he has devised a plan that will get us there.
He knows that the only way to achieve this Joy is to become completely selfless, as He is!
To never hurt others, and to always help others!
The commandments teach us how to not hurt others, nor ourselves; and,
The higher law teaches us how to help others.
You are of this value to God.
If you are this value, then all of God's children are of this value.
Everyone is of this value to God.
So, God loves us with all His heart, might, mind, and strength.
We should love Him with all our heart, might, mind, and strength.
God loves each of us as Himself,
We need to love our neighbour as ourselves.
Let us be like our Father, let us emulate Him, let us be one with Him, thereby acquiring the same Eternal Joy He has!

ReplyDeleteThis sure looks like a chiasmus. I diagrammed the chiasmus within a chiasmus as I viewed it. Hopefully it will come through with the formatting in place.

Thank you Brother Bill for expounding on this and showing it in Chiasmus form. 😁 Didn't catch that until you pointed it out.
DeleteThank you Bro Joseph for sharing this truth with the rest of us and in such simple terms. 😊
How did you do that!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd if you think about it, as a parent, when you see your child experience joy you yourself receive more joy through their experience. So as we experience true joy, our "parents" receive even more joy through our joy. One Eternal round. Irene
ReplyDeleteIt is such a relief, to know that our Heavenly Parents are loving and kind, even more so than us!
