Genesis 1:26
26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
Genesis 9:7
Be Fruitful and Increase in Number
As for you, be fruitful and increase in number; multiply on the earth and increase upon it.
Job 38:4-41
The LORD Speaks
4 "Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation?
Tell me, if you understand.
5 Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know!
Who stretched a measuring line across it?
6 On what were its footings set,
or who laid its cornerstone-
7 while the morning stars sang together
and all the angels shouted for joy?
8 "Who shut up the sea behind doors
when it burst forth from the womb,
9 when I made the clouds its garment
and wrapped it in thick darkness,
10 when I fixed limits for it
and set its doors and bars in place,
11 when I said, 'This far you may come and no farther;
here is where your proud waves halt'?
12 "Have you ever given orders to the morning,
or shown the dawn its place,
13 that it might take the earth by the edges
and shake the wicked out of it?
14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal;
its features stand out like those of a garment.
15 The wicked are denied their light,
and their upraised arm is broken.
16 "Have you journeyed to the springs of the sea
or walked in the recesses of the deep?
17 Have the gates of death been shown to you?
Have you seen the gates of the shadow of death?
18 Have you comprehended the vast expanses of the earth?
Tell me, if you know all this.
19 "What is the way to the abode of light?
And where does darkness reside?
20 Can you take them to their places?
Do you know the paths to their dwellings?
21 Surely you know, for you were already born!
You have lived so many years!
22 "Have you entered the storehouses of the snow
or seen the storehouses of the hail,
23 which I reserve for times of trouble,
for days of war and battle?
24 What is the way to the place where the lightning is dispersed,
or the place where the east winds are scattered over the earth?
25 Who cuts a channel for the torrents of rain,
and a path for the thunderstorm,
26 to water a land where no man lives,
a desert with no one in it,
27 to satisfy a desolate wasteland
and make it sprout with grass?
28 Does the rain have a father?
Who fathers the drops of dew?
29 From whose womb comes the ice?
Who gives birth to the frost from the heavens
30 when the waters become hard as stone,
when the surface of the deep is frozen?
31 "Can you bind the beautiful Pleiades?
Can you loose the cords of Orion?
32 Can you bring forth the constellations in their seasons
or lead out the Bear with its cubs?
33 Do you know the laws of the heavens?
Can you set up God's dominion over the earth?
34 "Can you raise your voice to the clouds
and cover yourself with a flood of water?
35 Do you send the lightning bolts on their way?
Do they report to you, 'Here we are'?
36 Who endowed the heart with wisdom
or gave understanding to the mind ?
37 Who has the wisdom to count the clouds?
Who can tip over the water jars of the heavens
38 when the dust becomes hard
and the clods of earth stick together?
39 "Do you hunt the prey for the lioness
and satisfy the hunger of the lions
40 when they crouch in their dens
or lie in wait in a thicket?
41 Who provides food for the raven
when its young cry out to God
and wander about for lack of food?
Romans 1:20
Man is Without Excuse
20 For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
Acts 17:22-31
From One Man He Made All Nations
22 Paul then stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus and said: “People of Athens! I see that in every way you are very religious. 23 For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: to an unknown god. So you are ignorant of the very thing you worship—and this is what I am going to proclaim to you.
24 “The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands. 25 And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else. 26 From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. 27 God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. 28 ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’
29 “Therefore since we are God’s offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone—an image made by human design and skill. 30 In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. 31 For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead.”
Matthew 24:35
My Words Will Never Pass
35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
Evolutionists say that all life on earth shares a common ancestry...Just like cousins all share a past grandparent...And everyone is related, including fish of the sea, birds of the air, livestock over the earth, all those other creatures that move along the ground, and plants...We are uncles to the whale, the fern, the rooster, the snake, and an oak tree -if one believes in evolution...Evolution is based on randomness and things always evolving...
How did evolution fine tune the earth for not only plants to live, but fish and sea animals to live?...And also include (in evolution) that animals walk the earth, and how is mankind able to exist and continue to exist?...I personally find it odd, that we are able to survive from and on these other living things (that just came into existence)...We eat many of the plants, and fish from the sea, and many of the animals to nourish us, and keep humanity going...God said rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground...That makes perfect sense...
In the Book of Job, God speaks and asks us if we were there when the earth's foundation was laid...The LORD asks many tough scientific questions to Job (and to us)...The fact is, Job was not there in the beginning and did not see what happened...If we assume there is one common primeval soup that is our father and mother and all of life is related, then should not the scientific community start trying to better improve their theory...There has been no scientific experiments to my knowledge that have seen a new species evolve...Couldn't we have a very long term experiment to see this happen over time, much time?...Charles Darwin wrote his Origin of Species in 1859...We could have the lengthiest of generation after generation experiment to see how a new specie evolves...But after a long period of time (a very long period of time), we should see some new species, and solid evidence in the Theory of Evolution...If life forms change from everything from oak trees to mankind -this would continue to happen...Evolution would never stop, the 50,000 or 500,000 year old oak tree would be different from today's oak tree...And if that is the case, man will change in the next 500,000 years -if you believe in evolution...
There are probably three types of people on earth...There are believers, who believe that God designed the earth and the universe -and made it for man...And that He created man in His image and made man stewards of the earth...There are non-believers who believe in a theory of evolution or a theory of a type of randomness -and that is how they/we got here...So to the non-believer, I am randomly writing about a God, who does not exist and who does not provide for us or the raven when its young cries out for lack of food...The third type of people are those that don't give God or evolution or a random theory much thought...They just keep busy with work and daily routines, and stuff that keeps their days busy...So one can look around their world and see God and see Him working in the things of the earth and their lives, or they can believe in randomness -and everything that ever got here on earth can from randomness, including these very words and thoughts I have as I write...
I believe in God...I think He made us in His image of Love and Truth...He designed the earth for man and fine tuned the skies and heavens for us to breathe air, eat, and to increase the number of the people on earth...We live in a planet designed very much for humanity...He has made all men from the first man named Adam...Our mother is Eve...We are their offspring, but we are also His offspring...He wants us to inhabit the whole earth, and has given us each a specific birth date and place to be born -so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us... For in him we live and move and have our being...
God has sent His Son to us, so that we would know more about Him...Jesus is the very essence of His Father...He was born of a virgin, who was impregnated with the Holy Spirit -which seems fitting, because how else would Divinity come into our world?...He said that He and His Father are One, and that no one can get to His Father, except through Him...He even stood up and said I AM Truth...But I think we should expect our Messiah to say such things...I would also expect One so Divine to use the language so perfectly, that His words would remain forever...He is the Living God, and His words and teachings remain with us even today...
