So a straitjacket restrains and Timothy Keller explains how Christianity is able to penetrate different cultures all over the world. That a Christian's relationship with God is like a normal human love relationship where there is mutual loss of independence. Both parties must say "I will adjust to you." In Jesus, God has adjusted to us.
How about in your belief, do you have any creed/tenets to follow to be a full member of your faith?

Not as such. There's a more or less unspoken rule that simply says "don't be a jackass".
There's different versions of my faith however, in Odinism they have the Nine Noble Virtues, which i also subscribe to;
Strength is better than weakness
Courage is better than cowardice
Joy is better than guilt
Honour is better than dishonour
Freedom is better than slavery
Kinship is better than alienation
Realism is better than dogmatism
Vigor is better than lifelessness
Ancestry is better than universalism
I'm not so sure these are a requirement, but i try to live by them regardless.

these are great personal traits to have. Anything about how to relate to others and to God?

" Kinship is better than alienation"
Ones relationship with the Gods is ones own business.
