God and Men and Life

*
Christianity should not be presented as a matter of God doing things to Men...

But, instead, as a personal relationship between God and each Man...

And a relationship in which each Man's personal will, choices, and actions are a real and central and necessary part.

*

Thus the human condition of incarnate, mortal earthly Life should not be presented as something done to us - not as a reward, nor as a punishment - but primarily as a (mutually-agreed) context for personal relationship.
