What does the Eternal want from us?
What the Eternal wants from us is nothing other than why He created us. However, He also gave us free will because He loves us. In addition to this free will, he also created evil so that we have a choice to make. What would free will be without the possibility of choice?
What is this choice? It is the choice between good and evil. Between life and death. Between light and darkness. Between the covenant of the Eternal or the covenant of the devil. With every decision we make, we open a door for one or the other.
The devil is what we automatically choose if we do not choose the covenant with the Eternal. He is the second option. This means that we can live the life that the Eternal has given us with our human body in the flesh and, when the human body dies, we will also die in the soul. Then we may have spent a few decades living and decided we don't want to continue living. All we have to do is let ourselves go and stop thinking about the Eternal One or any laws or rules. If we disrupt other people or powers through our behavior or decisions, we will suffer the consequences - in life. Because after that, life is over. The wages of sin is death. Some call it bad luck, others call it karma. We call it divine justice.
When we decide for life, we decide for a life in the covenant of the eternal. Even then it is relatively easy. We do what the Eternal says and in return he does what he promised us. We honor him and worship him and try to grow a little stronger in our faith every day. Our body will still die at some point, but our soul will live on forever in order to be able to serve the Eternal forever.
To serve means to do a service. We will not be slaves. We will serve the Most High of rulers and be heirs to his kingdom. We can use the school of life for the few decades that we live here on earth to become good students who study the Word of the Eternal in order to learn more every day what we can do to help the Eternal to be able to serve even better and more beautifully.
What becomes of people who do not know the Eternal? For example, when an infant dies... Or an Indian who has never heard of the Eternal? Well, the Eternal alone decides. However, every person has a conscience. And everyone can do the best from their own perspective and with their knowledge, or just something else. How the Eternal carries out this calculation is his business. But if we always act with a clear conscience, we should be free from guilt and therefore righteous before the Eternal - regardless of whether we know Him or not!
With the God of Abraham, the Eternal, there are no limits...
... but for us humans it does. However, always be aware that everyone has a choice. Everyone is responsible for their own decisions. Everyone has free will and is encouraged to make good use of it. Don't treat anyone worse than you would like to be treated. Never condemn a person because, in your opinion, he or she is violating God's commandments. Let God Himself make His judgment. If someone does something you don't agree with, try to move away from that person first. If that's not possible, kindly make it clear to that person what your opinion is, maybe you'll find a peaceful way where everyone can live in peace with their opinion. However, never feel compelled to endure attacks. There are helpful places, such as advice centers or the police, that you can turn to in confidence. Always remain connected to the eternal in faith! Sometimes He doesn't help Himself because He wants us to go to the places He has called to help us. He always has the best plan!
