Nothing inspires me more than the view of creation depicted in the first chapter of Moses (verse 39) in which the prophet is given a glimpse of some of the creations of God through the Son and is told, “Worlds without number have I created.” Moses pressed his Creator to tell him the meaning of his endless, ongoing creations. Finally, the now well-known answer came: “For behold, this is my work and glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.” It would seem that “eternal” in this context has a qualitative connotation, meaning God-like, even as it does in the Gospel of John, wherein Christ said, “This is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” (John 17:3.) The very work of Deity is to bring man—all men—to a greater realization of the life which God knows, to help men increase in integrity, love, freedom, and creativity, to achieve the full measure of their creation as sons of God.Share
