Yep, Satan tempted Eve with the idea she would be like God. Its been one of Satan's biggest lies since the beginning.
And here in the last days its still what the elites believe is going to happen. Its still Satans biggest deception for them. They are going to be immortal.
Most believers don't realize it yet, but ironically its born again Christians who will become Gods, only with our Loving Father and Creator over us all from everlasting to everlasting.
But when you boil it down to what He reveals to us in scripture, He desires to make us eternal beings in perfect righteousness, His very own beloved children, and put us over all creation and all creations to come forever more. What is the son of a great King? Royalty. What is a son of God? Yep.
But via mankinds fall and redemption through Jesus, His righteousness and grace teaches us we are not really worthy of it, and thus we come to Him as little children seeking His grace. We don't desire and seek these things in our hearts due to pride and vanity. This is one of the reasons you see saints casting their crowns and His feet in Revelation. He esteems us and crowns us with such glory all we can do is humbly cast our crowns at His feet because we know its by His grace and love, not our works and deeds. Yet He eternally crowns us with these things anyway.
The elites seek it through their lust and pride, but instead we will receive it though grace alone and realize we are unworthy of it. The polar opposite of the wicked intentions and desires in the hearts of the elites. Instead we receive it in perfect righteousness, a free gift of our Fathers love. HALLELUJAH!
Our hearts desire is just to be with Him in eternity, to love Him and be loved by Him. He alone is worth of the glory.
Its beautiful and overwhelming when you try to wrap your head around it. As written in scripture....no eye has seen, no ear has heard or even dreamt in the heart the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.
