But they don’t know Jesus!
How can people who don’t know Jesus do Good?
How do people intrinsically know right from wrong?
Is it possible for an athiest or agnostic or buhdist or muslim or fill in the blank to do the right thing to be a positive influence in the world today?
The big surprise!
Humanity was created in the image of God.
This first conversation that we read in scripture had to be between someone.
Let’s pick it apart a bit and then we will dig into who was having it.
Equal but different
People use the word man here as some sort of proof that men are supposed to be better than or more than or closer than women.
That couldn’t be further from the truth Man here simpley refers to humanity.
If you wonder about that just look at the entire verse paying attention to the fact that he doesn’t say he created him in the image of God and stopped.
Male and female both created in the image of God.
From the first conversation we have God creating male and female giving them both his image, giving both his likeness.
If we want to know what God looks like if you want to konw what God looks like just turn to your right or left.
Created for purpose!
In that first conversation God stated our purpose.
To take care of to tend to manage what he has created.
(a good manager vs a bad manager)
All Christ followers should be environmentalists because we were placed here to care for God’s creation.
Created for relationship!
We are going to get a bit deeper into this conversation next week but I want to hit this one verse right now to show that we were created for relationship with each other and with God.
This verse drills down a bit on the creation of man, God recognized the need for relationship and made male AND female.
But we were created for more than just relationship with each other.
We find that information a few verses later.
Next week we are digging into this conversation, but this verse speaks volumes.
Humanity at one point had a walking around together in person talking living breathing relationship with God.
That relationship with God was broken.
Which brings us to that last little bit of information…Who was God talking to?
Man tore up the design that God had for relationship with him, but God had a way to fix it.
That way was the person that was having this first conversation with the Father.
The Word, Jesus…How do we know?
So what does all this mean?
We need to remember that Humanity was made in the image of God.
That God’s desire is to redeem Humanity.
Not some of Humanity, not the Humanity that we are comfortable with, Not the humanity that we agree with…Expound
This Weeks Challenge!
Go out of your way to build a relationship with someone that is different than you.
Not just different in looks, or in the church they attend but different, in what they believe.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TELL THEM ABOUT JESUS ON DAY ONE!
