God's dilemma

If you are computer wizard you can easily rig up a machine that announces “I love you” whenever you walk past it.  Of course, it would be meaningless: genuine love is based on a choice, to love or not to love.   That was God’s dilemma: if He didn’t give us the choice, our profession of love wouldn’t mean a thing but if He did, He could not be sure how we would use it.  Of course, He soon found out; from the very beginning we disobeyed - with terrible consequences, because lacking blameless souls we had no access to the throne of Heavenly grace.  So how did He solve the problem?  He sent His Son to be one of us.  He needed a perfect, blameless human to die and be worthy to open the gates.  That is what we celebrate each Christmas - the fact that death is the beginning, not the end.  That’s what I think, anyway - so I’m glad I’m a Christian - and cannot understand why we don‘t shout it from the rooftops.
