Character Creation (The Trinity)
Much like forming a unique character in RPGs, the Trinity doctrine explains God’s multi-dimensional existence. Just as a player might manage different aspects of their character—strength, intelligence, wisdom—the Trinity represents different personas of God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, working together in one epic quest (inspired by Article 2 and Article 3 of the Fundamental Truths).
Unlocking the Ultimate Power-Up (Salvation)
In games, acquiring a rare item or ability can change gameplay dramatically. The doctrine of Salvation is similar; it’s like the ultimate power-up. It’s obtained not through grinding or luck, but as a gift through faith in Jesus Christ, delivering us from the final boss—sin and death (reflecting Article 5 of the Fundamental Truths).
Health Regeneration (Divine Healing)
Gamers are familiar with items or spells that restore health or even revive characters. The belief in Divine Healing is akin to this, where God’s power is believed to heal our bodies and souls, restoring us beyond what potions or spells can achieve, reflecting the power Jesus showed and passed to believers as described in the New Testament (based on Article 12 of the Fundamental Truths).
Epic Boss Fight (The Second Coming)
Just as many games culminate in a final, epic boss fight, the doctrine of The Second Coming portrays Jesus’ return as the ultimate climax of history, where He comes to establish a kingdom of peace and justice, defeating evil once and for all. This event is eagerly anticipated like the final stage in a game where all will be restored and made right (derived from Articles 13 to 16 of the Fundamental Truths).
