I have a somewhat related question that's bothering me.
Since God is unchanging, how can we have a relationship with him? We cannot change God, so doesn't that mean that we cannot affect God in a relationship? If we cannot have pleasures, desires, will, or self, but are supposed to find those all in God, how is that not just equivalent to an authoritarian force imposing their nature upon us, rather than a loving father/husband? Where am I in God? How is there room for me at all, if all earthly pleasures are evil? How is it at all reciprocal back and forth kind of love if nothing in God can be reciprocated, nothing can be changed? Who even am I without my desires and self will? It seems I'm just an empty shell that God is spiritually raping.
why do you need to change someone to have a relationship with them?
