Atonement

July 24, 2007

Predicament:
We all signed the contract to be here
With a loving Father to guide us
We see the progress we’re making
Knowing our learning is for something

But unto what are we growing?
When is our potential fulfilled?
Why, unto Godship we’re capable
To be co-creators with Him

He will withhold nothing from us
If we’re but willing to receive
Perfection is the pinnacle
The prerequisite for power

Anything less cannot handle
The awesome responsibility
The creative power of the Gods
Or assisting others on their journey

Perfection, both body and spirit
Both physical and spiritual
Of our individual beings
Is the passport for admission

But we break that contract every day
Causing irreparable damage
Like breaking glass or killing someone
Nothing we do can make it whole again

Disqualified automatically
We cannot redeem our mistakes
Like paying debts with cash we don’t have
Perfection cannot be had again

Divine Solution:
Unless a third party is involved
One not under condemnation
Free from the penalties of the law
A perfect being with our same contract

He appeases two laws eternal
Those of mercy and justice
One is the law, which can’t be erased
The other, a gift to make us whole

The demands of justice must be met
The laws are perfectly upheld
Yet, a promise the Father won’t make
Without a way for its fulfillment

Hence, another intercedes for us
Fulfilling all ends of the law
Making possible once again
The contract we signed long ago

He does for us what we cannot do
Paying our debts with His perfection
Tied to Him, we’ve access to Godship
Through Him, it’s all made possible

Our spirits now have a new chance
But perfect bodies we still need
Since death becomes each one of us
Physical restoration we need

To our rescue He comes once again
The first to have a body made perfect
Through Him again we’ve access to this
Our spirits and bodies restored

Without this divine third party
No chance would we have to fulfill
The potential and purposes
Providence has provided for us

All the third party asks in return
Is for all we can possibly do
After that, He’ll take care of the rest
The contract and promise complete
