As it says in the title, this is a class I designed for a high homebrew game my friend is running.
The goal was to make a squishy Paladin with full spellcasting based off of Sorcerer/Cleric. Uses Cleric spell-list, has very few spells prepared. The DM already said it looks good, but as someone who typically strays away from Homebrew, I thought a second opinion might be nice to avoid overshadowing the others, but I don't want to be dead weight, and some of the homebrews the other players are running are quite powerful. All abilities are based off another class or subclasses' ability that they get around the same level.
Any feedback is appreciated!
I chose the Purgatories Subclass, and we are currently level 8.

Spellcasting
Cantrips
At 1st level, you know three cantrips of your choice from the cleric spell list. You learn additional reckoner cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Reckoner table.
Preparing and Casting Spells
The Reckoner table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your reckoner spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.
You prepare the list of reckoner spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the cleric spell list. When you do so, choose a number of reckoner spells equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.
You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest.
Spellcasting Ability
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your reckoner spells. You use your Charisma whenever a reckoner spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when Setting the saving throw DC for a reckoner spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
Spell Attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
Ritual Casting
You can cast a reckoner spell as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag and you have the spell prepared.
Spellcasting Focus
You can use a holy symbol as a spellcasting focus for your reckoner spells.
Divine Sense
As an action, until the end of your next turn, you know the location of any celestial, fiend, or undead within 60 feet of you that is not behind total cover. You know the type of any being whose presence you sense, but not its identity. Within the same radius, you also detect the presence of any place or object that has been consecrated or desecrated. You can use this feature a number of times equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier. When you finish a long rest, you regain all expended uses.
Eternal Knowledge
You are given a grimoire called a Book of Truth. When you gain this feature, choose three cantrips from any class's spell list (the three needn't be from the same list). While the book is on your person, you can cast those cantrips at will. They don't count against your number of cantrips known. If they don't appear on the cleric spell list, they are nonetheless reckoner spells for you.
While your Book of Truth is on your person, you know the Augury spell and can cast it as a ritual. The spell doesn't count against your number of spells known.
If you lose your Book of Truth, you can perform a 1-hour ceremony to receive a replacement from your patron. This ceremony can be performed during a short or long rest, and it destroys the previous book. The book turns to ash when you die.
Works of Mysterious Ways
You choose one 1st level spell from the wizard spell list. This spell is considered a reckoner spell for you and is always prepared. At 3rd level and every odd level thereafter, you gain access to another spell from the wizard spell list whose level is equal to or less than the highest level reckoner spell slot you have in an identical manner. These spells do not count against the number of spells you have prepared.
Prophetic Vision
At 2nd level, glimpses of the future begin to press in on your awareness. When you finish a long rest, roll two d20 and record the numbers rolled. You can replace any attack roll, saving throw, or ability check made by you or a creature that you can see with one of these foretelling rolls. You must choose to do so before the roll, and you can replace a roll in this way only once per turn.
Each foretelling roll can be used only once. When you finish a long rest, you lose any unused foretelling rolls.
Potent Glory
Starting at 2nd level, you add your Charisma modifier to the damage you deal with any reckoner cantrip.
Divine Health
By 3rd level, the divine magic flowing through you makes you immune to disease.
Sacred Gospel
When you reach 3rd level, you are purposed with the writing of a sacred gospel to record in your Book of Truth. Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and again at 7th, 15th, and 20th level.
Gospel of End Times
Gospel of Judgement
Gospel of Miracles
Gospel of Souls
Gospel of Revelation
Gospel of Seas
Gospel of Purgatories
Gospel of Worlds
Gospel Spells
Each gospel has a list of associated spells. You gain access to these spells when you gain access to reckoner spell slots of the associated level. Once you gain access to a gospel spell, you always have it prepared. Gospel spells don't count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. If you gain a gospel spell that doesn't appear on the cleric spell list, the spell is nonetheless a reckoner spell for you.
Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.
Unleash Power
Starting at 5th level, as a bonus action, you can magically summon a gateway from a plane of pure power to a point you can see within 60 feet of you. The portal creates an aura in a 30-foot radius around that point. It counts as neither a creature nor an object, nor can it be traveled through, though it emits sound and colored light.
As a bonus action, you can move the gateway up to 60 feet to a point you can see.
The gateway persists for 1 minute or until you're incapacitated. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
The gateway’s aura has effects as described per your chosen gospel under Unleash Power Aura.
Aura of Protection
Starting at 6th level, whenever you or a friendly creature within 10 feet of you must make a saving throw, the creature gains a bonus to the saving throw equal to your Charisma modifier (with a minimum bonus of +1). You must be conscious to grant this bonus. At 18th level, the range of this aura increases to 30 feet.
Inscrutable Mind
Starting at 9th level, you have resistance to psychic damage, and whenever a creature deals psychic damage to you, that creature takes the same amount of damage that you do. Additionally, your thoughts can't be read unless you allow it.
Aura of Courage
Starting at 10th level, you and friendly creatures within 10 feet of you can't be frightened while you are conscious. At 18th level, the range of this aura increases to 30 feet.
Expanded Purpose
At 11th level, when you complete a long rest, you can pick a second gospel. You gain the full features, unleash power aura options, and gospel spells from both your original and second gospel. The benefits of your second gospel last until you finish your next long rest.
Saving Grace
At 13th level, as a reaction when you or a creature that you can see within 30 feet of you suffers a critical hit, you can turn that attack into a normal hit. Any effects triggered by a critical hit are canceled.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of once).
You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Apocryphal Student
By 14th level, as a bonus action, you can call to mind the ability to cast one spell of your choice from any class's spell list. The spell must be of a level for which you have spell slots, you mustn't have it prepared, and you follow the normal rules for casting it, including expending a spell slot. If the spell isn't a reckoner spell, it counts as a reckoner spell when you cast it. The ability to cast the spell vanishes from your mind when you cast it or when the current turn ends.
You can't use this feature again until you finish a long rest.
Vessel of the Empyrean
At 17th level, when you are reduced to 0 hit points and are not killed outright, you can choose to drop to 1 hit point instead. Once you use this ability, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest. Additionally, you suffer none of the drawbacks of old age, and you can't be aged magically.

On a failed save, the creature is turned for 1 minute or until it takes damage. A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can't willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can't take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there's nowhere to move, the creature can use the Dodge action. If the creature's true form is concealed by an illusion, shape-shifting, or other effect, that form is revealed while it is turned.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
Unleash Power Aura
The gateway itself is dark, emanating a warm heat. The rhythmic sounds of clanging church bells release thunderous booms audible out to 300 feet for the duration.

In addition, you and your allies have advantage on Charisma (Intimidation) checks while in the aura.

On a success, it frees itself and the chains vanish.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
Unleash Power Aura
The gateway itself is a mote of light, out of which expands tendrils of unmoving smoke. The area becomes oddly quiet. The aura is made mute, and all creatures become incapable of producing sound, making casting a spell that includes a verbal component impossible. You are never affected by this aura.

In addition, you and your allies gain advantage on Dexterity checks and Dexterity saving throws while in the aura.
Salvation through Arms
Beginning at 7th level, you can produce magic weapons and armor. You spend 10 minutes focusing your magic on a mundane weapon, suit of armor, shield, or bundle of twenty pieces of ammunition, and expend a spell slot to infuse it with magical energy. The magic item retains its enhancement for 8 hours or until used (in the case of magic ammunition). You can infuse only one item at a time; if you infuse a second one, the first immediately loses its potency. Once you have expended a spell slot to create such an item, you cannot regain that slot until the item becomes nonmagical.
The spell slot you expend determines the type of weapon, armor, or shield you can create.

Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

You have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage from nonmagical weapons.

The gateway is a translucent purple crystal, pulsating with power that causes you to hurt if you touch it. Each creature of your choice in the aura gains disadvantage on saving throws against your spells.
Aura of the Exorcist
Starting at 7th level, you constantly emanate an aura while you're not incapacitated. The aura extends 10 feet from you in every direction, but not through total cover.

You can meditate in this way for a number of minutes equal to your Charisma score and must maintain concentration during that time, as if you were casting a spell.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
Object Reading: Holding an object as you meditate, you can see visions of the object's previous owner. After meditating for 1 minute, you learn how the owner acquired and lost the object, as well as the most recent significant event involving the object and that owner. If the object was owned by another creature in the recent past (within a number of days equal to your Charisma score), you can spend 1 additional minute for each owner to learn the same information about that creature.
Area Reading: As you meditate, you see visions of recent events in your immediate vicinity (a room, street, tunnel, clearing, or the like, up to a 50-foot cube), going back a number of days equal to your Charisma score. For each minute you meditate, you learn about one significant event, beginning with the most recent. Significant events typically involve powerful emotions, such as battles and betrayals, marriages and murders, births and funerals. However, they might also include more mundane events that are nevertheless important in your current situation.

As an action, you can make any fiend or undead, provided that it's within 30 feet and that can see or hear you, make a Wisdom saving throw. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes damage. A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can't willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can't take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there's nowhere to move, the creature can use the Dodge action.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
Unleash Power Aura

Guide through Suffering
Starting at 7th level, when you or a creature within 30 feet of you takes acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage, you can use your reaction to grant resistance to the creature against that instance of the damage.
Share Glimpse
Starting at 15th level, you can use an action to make a ranged spell attack against a creature within 60 feet. On a hit, you instantly transport the target through the lower planes. The creature disappears and hurtles through a nightmare landscape. At the end of your next turn, the target returns to the space it previously occupied, or the nearest unoccupied space. If the target is not a fiend, it takes 10d10 psychic damage as it reels from its horrific experience. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.
Ascendant Apostle
At 20th level, as an action, you can emanate light. For 1 minute, bright light shines from you in a 30-foot radius, and dim light shines 30 feet beyond that.

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
Unleash Power Aura
The gateway itself is a miniaturized planet with an ecology of your choice. If you cast a spell with a spell slot that restores hit points to anyone inside or outside the aura, each creature of your choice in the aura also regains hit points equal to your reckoner level. In addition, you and your allies have advantage on Wisdom (Nature) checks while in the aura.
Intelligent Designs
At 7th level, when you cast a spell with a spell slot, you can expend one additional spell slot to augment its effects for this casting. The effect depends on the spell slot you expend.
An additional 1st-level spell slot can increase the spell's raw force. If you roll damage for the spell when you cast it, increase the damage against every target by 2d10 force damage. If the spell can deal damage on more than one turn, it deals this extra force damage only on the turn you cast the spell.
An additional 2nd-level spell slot can increase the spell's range. If the spell's range is at least 30 feet, it becomes 1 mile.
An additional 3rd-level spell slot can increase the spell's potency. Increase the spell's save DC by 2.
Mind to Hand
By 15th level, when you cast an illusion spell of 1st level or higher, you can choose one inanimate, nonmagical object that is part of the illusion and make that object real. You can do this on your turn as a bonus action while the spell is ongoing. The object remains real for 1 minute. For example, you can create an illusion of a bridge over a chasm and then make it real long enough for your allies to cross.
The object can't deal damage or otherwise directly harm anyone.
Creator’s Flight
At 20th level, you have a flying speed equal to your current walking speed whenever you are not underground or indoors.
The goal was to make a squishy Paladin with full spellcasting based off of Sorcerer/Cleric. Uses Cleric spell-list, has very few spells prepared. The DM already said it looks good, but as someone who typically strays away from Homebrew, I thought a second opinion might be nice to avoid overshadowing the others, but I don't want to be dead weight, and some of the homebrews the other players are running are quite powerful. All abilities are based off another class or subclasses' ability that they get around the same level.
Any feedback is appreciated!
I chose the Purgatories Subclass, and we are currently level 8.

Preparing and Casting Spells
