***But I mean, if you really think of yourself as an adult adopted child of God who can make his own decisions and do whatever he wants, then I wish you the best of luck with that. :) I hope you make good enough decisions and do enough works, etc.***
Yes, your Silliness!!!! :)
It is in the commission of sin that we reject God, in fact, engaging in the process of unadopting us from Him.
***In any manner close to the analogy we are talking about parental rights terminate for the human parent when the child reaches 18 (barring some emancipation kind of action).***
We are not talking about parental rights, we are talking about the reversal of adoption. If I was adopted as a child, my adoptive parents are still my adoptive parents for life unless I (or they) act to undo it.
If I sin, I reject God. I work to undo that adoption.
I know it is very important to you to believe that you have that level of power, that level of control. After all, you are a fully grown man and YOU make the decisions about your life. YOU say how things are going to be. You are the captain of your own ship and you will determine where she sails. I totally understand this and I know that the vast majority of humans also believe this way.
In your above you just told me that you believe that you have the power to undo what God has done, apart from God's wishes. I wonder if you have ever considered exactly what kind of power that actually is. Imagine it, you are saying that God said "x", you didn't like it, and YOU changed it to "y". I couldn't begin to comprehend the power it would take to do that, and yet you say you actually HAVE that power. This is a great difference between our faiths.
