Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by obonujoker(m): 9:08am On Aug 15, 2021 |
Man is the highest form of God’s creation among the animals and the creatures that live on this earth. But man is also lower than the angels who live in heaven. Humans – The Highest On Earth Man is the only creature that God made to be like Him. The animals of the sea and the land are called beasts in the Bible. God created them, and then He decided to make something new – a human being. And God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good. Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” (NASB) Genesis 1:25-26 Every moving thing that is alive shall be food for you; I give all to you, as I gave the green plant. (NASB) Genesis 9:3 He gave humans authority over the plants and animals. God made man the highest creature on earth. Angels – The Highest In The Universe But man is not the highest in God’s creation. When Jesus came to this earth and took on human flesh, He appeared as a man. Jesus did this in order to pay the penalty for our sins – to die for our sins. He did this so that he could forgive our sins. The book of Hebrews says that when Jesus came here in human flesh, He was made lower than the angels. But we do see Him who has been made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone. (NASB) Hebrews 2:9 This tells us that humans are lower than the angels. We are not greater. Angels are greater in power and authority. Yet, scripture tells us that believers will judge the angels some day in the future. What an awesome responsibility. Do you not know that we shall judge angels? . . . 1 Cor. 6:3 (NASB) Conclusion: In summary, angels are greater than humans, and humans are greater than all of the other creatures on this planet. What a great responsibility God has given us. God wants us to be kind, loving, and gracious to the animals and to care for our world. A righteous man has regard for the life of his beast, But the compassion of the wicked is cruel. (NASB) Proverbs 12:10 https://www.neverthirsty.org/bible-qa/qa-archives/question/are-human-beings-the-highest-part-of-gods-creation/ What do you think? 1 Like |

Man is higher! Angels has no freewill. Satan ain't no Angel but a Jinn in the company of Angels. 1 Like |

If God created man, who created God? This is a simple and yet a complex question, depends on your stance. |

GOD CREATED THE GREATEST ON THE FIRST DAY OF CREATION.. MAN, THE LEAST, WAS CREATED ON THE SIXTH DAY. |

obonujoker: You used the correct and accurate word, which is "on this earth". Not outside it. |

falcon01: Because a person knows, wood, it must say you are made of wood. Because a mannequin knows plastic, it must say that you are plastic. And you would call all these lesser things foolish for thinking so. So also are you foolish for thinking and asking Who Created God, because you were created and you know creating. |

Dtruthspeaker:Does it have an answer? |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by Dtruthspeaker: 1:24pm On Aug 15, 2021 |

falcon01:There is no iota of complexity in your alleged 'complex question' The only true, factual and honest to goodness stance is that God is self existent. Nothing created God and nobody created God. This is so because God exist independently of anything, other beings and/or causes. 1 Like |

obonujoker: Why did god make man have so many similarities with the beasts called Apes? |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by Dtruthspeaker: 2:56pm On Aug 15, 2021 |
KnownUnknown: The same way man made pressing irons similar to cars. |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by KnownUnknown: 3:01pm On Aug 15, 2021 |
Dtruthspeaker: The goal of morphogenetic fields is to plant the seeds of peace rather than desire. By refining, we grow as intention requires exploration. This life is nothing short of a redefining oasis of intergalactic science. |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by Dtruthspeaker: 3:12pm On Aug 15, 2021 |
KnownUnknown: Change of Post! The issue is not about "the goals of morphogenetic feilds"! |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by KnownUnknown: 3:28pm On Aug 15, 2021 |
Dtruthspeaker: The morphogenetic fields form the substrate of existence, or as you call it, creation. So the goals of morphogenetic fields are intrinsic to this discussion. Please, cease and desist if you do not have the capacity to understand the evidence. Nevertheless, we vibrate, we exist, we are reborn. We exist as chaos-driven reactions, so you have to note the similarities. You say some things are akin to pressing irons and cars but the cosmos is aglow with psionic wave oscillations and we all know non-locality is the driver of insight. |

KnownUnknown:It is whats called prerogative that God can make man have so many similarities with the beasts called Apes. Below you see an orangutan that tried to rescue and showed more heart than most humans. The orangutan saw the man in snake-infested water and believing he was in danger, tried to save him by offer a helping hand. The man was actually in the pond clearing it from snakes so to keep the apes safe from them, but the ape did not know this and so made repeated attempts to help the man, by reaching out its hand so to pull the man out of the snake infested murky water. cc budaatum 1 Like

BassReeves: Am I supposed to be impressed that an ape offered a human a helping hand? You post this picture to prove what exactly? Budaatum used the Orangutang as an example of moral behavior and the picture taker as an example of immoral behavior while lying by omission that the person taking the picture understood the man was not in danger. Anyway, how about another perspective of these similarities. https://www.foxnews.com/science/chimps-killing-people-in-uganda |

Dtruthspeaker: If you are unable to understand the evidence, just say so, instead of trying to kick me out of a thread that you did not create. You obviously do not have the depth to understand potentiality is the birth of interconnectedness, and of us. Will requires exploration and you are intellectually incapable. |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by KnownUnknown: 4:02pm On Aug 15, 2021 |
obonujoker: But what about BassReeves’ fantastic example of the Samaritan Ape and the episode of the snake infested pond? Surely that’s a similarity even without Darwin. |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by budaatum: 4:03pm On Aug 15, 2021 |
KnownUnknown: And buda was lying about the Parable of the Good Samaritan that buda was creatively using the Orangutan to illustrate too, or is it that you just seeing in literal black and white? I ask because you can't possibly be against buda's creativity. No how! |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by Dtruthspeaker: 4:07pm On Aug 15, 2021 |
KnownUnknown: I can understand what you are saying but I believe that things should be done properly. You can say all you want in your own thread and the discussion which you raise will have priority and any subject matter that is not direct to your thread will be a deviation and a Change of Post exactly as you are doing to this thread. |

budaatum: The Lord says, “ Lies beget lies. Creative lies or propaganda? Creativity is not lying. Let the words that accompany thy images be true. A lying tongue leads thou to hell on the road paved with good intentions” |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by KnownUnknown: 4:19pm On Aug 15, 2021 |
Dtruthspeaker: Good that you understand. Now, this life is nothing short of an unveiling unifying of ever-present non-locality beget by creation flows. You and I are entities of the world. Growth is the truth of transcendence, and of us, so it behooves us to delimit ourselves from myopic horizons. Like I said before, this is intrinsic to the discussion. |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by 22jumpstreet: 4:24pm On Aug 15, 2021 |
If elephants and lion can write and draw, and they are asked to draw or write about God. They are going to draw God as exactly as they are. If you give a jew same task, he is going to draw God just as he is...but if it is a black man like the Dtruthspeaker, he us going to draw a white man.....lol.. Jokes apart, every of God's creature Is unique. Man, ant,mosquitos.. etc. They are all interdependent. Man was created last and given the task of naming the creations and taking good care of mother nature as she gives us our daily bread.. |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by budaatum: 4:28pm On Aug 15, 2021 |
KnownUnknown: Your creativity is not a lie, its just not true. See what you created above. "The Lord says", or you read in a book that someone wrote that the Lord said to someone the writer never met and you want the "Lord said" to buda. There is always a link accompanying that image for those who are not too lazy to see its already been pointed out as untrue. Or would you claim the Parable of the Good Samaritan is untrue too because its a story? |
Re: Is Man The Highest Of God Creation? by BassReeves: 4:36pm On Aug 15, 2021 |
KnownUnknown:You don't have to be impressed that an ape offered a hooman a helping hand KnownUnknown:I posted the picture to prove exactly that apes care for fellow primate, unlike most hoomans, hence there is nothing wrong in the God prerogative to make man have so many similarities with the beasts called Apes. KnownUnknown:What evil to the reader would budaatum have scored with that inventiveness? KnownUnknown:Apes clearly are beasts hence it is easy to understand, when they exhibit objectionable or unpleasant behaviour(s) Habitat loss inarguably is one of the greatest threat to all animals like them, and its the elimination or alteration of the natural living conditions necessary for these beasts to survive what leads to, instances like that of chimps killing people in Uganda. 1 Like |

budaatum: What creativity? The Lord says what needs to be known and it’s up to you to accept or reject it. Whatever book or Lord that you think I’m talking about indicates your beliefs are interfering with the transmission. The alleged link would be plausible deniability. You are such a good propagandist like the anti-vaxxers and Trump disciples. “There’s a link. Do your own research. You’re lazy!”. No, you’re just a liar. The Lord says, “ A parable is a sign of creativity. Thou lie when thy words do not match the image. Lies beget lies.” |
