1. ⁠God wants a relationship with creation
2. ⁠God gave us true free will
3. ⁠Adam misused free will to be like god. Breaking the relationship communion with god.
4. ⁠Expelled from garden to bar access to tree of life.
5. ⁠Suffering and evil is consequence of mortality.
6. ⁠No original sin. What we lost in the fall was immortality, we gained death. We inherit knowledge of good and evil. We have free will. All humans will sin and break communion from god personally not inherited.
7. ⁠Jesus was fully god and fully human. Nothing was removed from Jesus to give him an unfair advantage over death. His human side was obedient and kept communion with god. He experienced death. Resurrection is gods grace because he kept his communal relationship intact.
8. ⁠Jesus is new tree of life.
9. ⁠Jesus had to experience the suffering god has subject humans to through creation in order for it to be a meaningful sacrifice.
10. ⁠Jesus offer us a resurrection path to the tree of life after death if we truly believe.
    10b. No predestination, god wants every single person to have a relationship with him.
11. ⁠We can lose that salvation if we rebreak our communion through true non belief. You can’t fool god, he knows if you truly are seeking a real relationship.

This is a mismash of Hebrew Old Testament, Eastern Orthodox and Methodism. Specifically rejecting original sin, legal debt theology. I see god as truly wanting a relationship and allowing free will to play out to get that. Jesus being the bridge back by proving a real human could lead a sinless life even if the rest of us can’t. I feel this is a better explanation of how/why god the world works rather than a vengeful god doling out punishment for sins committed by imperfect beings he created himself. That doesn’t make sense to me.

Does this sound reasonable to anyone else?

Trying to learn riichi, at home we have always played home rules version of Hong Kong where you just get 4 trip and pair and call mahjong. Anyway, for the pinfu outside wait condition, what are the mechanics of the game when you claim win that allow other players to know if you satisfied the wait conditions. If all the tiles are concealed and you have multiple seq in the hand, when the tiles are revealed, how do you show the seq your last seq wasn’t waiting on a closed wait. Hopefully that rambling question makes sense to someone.
