The real question is whether we can learn anything from our experiences upon which we may grow and help others to grow in the likeness and image of God. We know that if we rebel against doing that which is reasonably possible for us, then we will be penalized.

In our slow progress away from rebellion, true perfection is doubtless several millennia away
