Lucifers plan: EVERYBODY wins! EVERYBODY gets immortality and eternal happiness! NOBODY goes to hell! Oh, but give Lucifer all the power first.
Communism: EVERYBODY wins! EVERYBODY gets a house, car, and living wage! NOBODY goes broke! Oh, but give the government all the power first.
Christ's plan: Follow God's plan
God's plan: Everyone gets a CHOICE. If you choose to try, even if you fail from time to time, Christ makes up for the slack. If you choose evil, Christ can't force you to be good. The people who choose good get to share everything God has, the people who choose evil lose everything.
The simplicity of the plan is beautiful. Don't want to follow God? Fine, up to you, but that might suck. We respect everyone's agency as it is fundamental to our progression.
I'd say thats a fair description, carry on LDS.
