"Love is a score of zero.
In life, we want love and we want to end up with a score of zero. We want zero regrets, zero embarrassments, zero frustrations, zero guilt, zero debts.
"It’s the same in the gospel. We ultimately want to end up with a score of zero.
Zero separation between us and our families, zero distance between me and my God, zero reasons for him to be ashamed of me, zero things I wouldn’t give up to be closer to him, the list goes on. In calculus there is a relationship between zero (which is love) and infinity. The limit of the function of (1/x) ((one over x)) as x approaches infinity, is zero. Let’s break it down.
- When I say limit, think “potential."
- So, the limit (potential) of 1 over x… as x approaches infinity is zero.
- 1 is Christ. He is the one and only begotten son, He is the first and the last, He is number one.
- X is us. We are x. Me, you, x.
- Infinity is the atonement because the atonement is infinite. It covers everything in all times, all things, all places, everything. Infinity: atonement
- The (potential) of 1 over x (of Christ over us) as x approaches infinity (as we approach the atonement) is zero.
"The potential of Christ over us as we approach the atonement, is zero. Through the atonement, we have the potential to earn a score of zero. Zero guilt, zero regrets, and zero difference between my will and God's will." -Emily Asher
