What is Christ's greatest gift to us? Its not Beautiful Women or kissing or even Deserts or anything like that, its Agency, the Ability to choose for ones self,Not just choosing between reading Harry Potter or Twilight but also right and wrong or eternal life or eternal damnation, "God will force no man to heaven" (hymn #240) Agency is the way to return to our Father in Heaven...
Yes Jesus did atone for our sins, but the scriptures tell us "For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also." (James 2:26) You can believe in the atonement all you want, but , and you have to use the atonement, it'd be like Having a cake there, but no earing it, but expecting t to feed itself to you, it ain't gonna Happen people. So basically You Have to use Agency to be able to the atonement it Has to be your choice, God won't force anyone to do anything, it has to be a choice.
Agency is the only thing that is truly ours, the rest is God's, from the air we breathe to theclothes on our back, every thing is a result of what God gives us. Agency on the other hand is ours. No one, including god, can make us do something we don't want, they can bribe us, threaten us, do horrible evil unspeakable things to us if we don't do what they want, but ultimately it is our choice.
