What is important to God is the oneness between Divinity and Humanity.
That is why Jesus Christ is most important to God.
This oneness between God and man is so important to God that that is why He created the creation to begin with.
" Even as He chose us BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD to be holy and without blemish before Him in love,
Predestinating us unto sonship through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will." (Eph. 1:4,5)
1. ) "BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD" should be understood to mean - before the existence of the universe.
2.) Before the existence of the universe God had a "good pleasure" and "His will" .
3.) According to this "good pleasure of His will" He predestinated that He would have sons sharing His life and nature.
4.) The accomplishing of having many sons was to be " through Jesus Christ to Himself."
5.) It appears that based upon this eternal plan He then laid "the foundation of the world", IE. He created all things.
So what is important to God is His Son, and through Him to have many sons. And for this He created the universe.
Man, woman .... You are important. Don't listen to the lost postmodernists who despairingly have resigned themselves to think human life doesn't really matter.

gf, these nine words which contain only one vertical pronoun succeed in creating a sharp contrast to the exhaustive logical replies you often deliver to those believers in Christ who presume they've been given some divine mandate to interfere with your own volition [the decider within the human soul].
Concision trumps brevity even in the Word of God: "Jesus wept." (John 11:35)

Talking to you is like having a conversation with someone who can only communicate
through fridge-magnet and bumper-sticker slogans.
Totally pointless and devoid of all meaning.

No. Put simply, you sin in your blasphemy, and I'm having none of it.
If you deign to preach to me about God, that is fine, but if you want me to discuss it with you, then you'll have to stop the blaspheming. Period.
Where the hell did I blaspheme?
And I was not 'preaching' I was making a logical argument.
Do you not understand the concept of a hypothetical?

For those that do not believe in God feel free to give what you think would
be important if God were real.
Such a boof-head question...................for all the boof-heads.
