Hi there,
So I have a substitute faith for Evolution: if God likes me bit by bit, in the end I will be what He wanted me to be.
It's not complicated, it just suggests that the struggle to be Christian, comes with a commitment to the end.
The world may say "you are what God wants you to be already" but that is a lie!
The whole point is, if I am straying from God's calling, I need to repent - God won't like me until my repentance is sincere.
Devotion to God, is sincere.
