@markcuban @EdBoatConnoisseur @SuperSnekFriend @WashedOutGundamPilot @branman65 @BigBoss_Luffy JESUS EXISTED BEFORE ALL CREATION
IT WAS HIS FATHER'S WILL THAT HE CREATE ALL THAT IS, WITH HIS HANDS
INCLUDING YOURSELF AND I
GENESIS IS ALSO A COMMENTARY, CRITIQUE, REFUTATION, AND CORRECTION
ON THE WORLDVIEW ESPOUSED NOT ONLY IN SUMERIAN BUT IN ALL BRONZE AGE RELIGIOUS CONCEPTIONS OF CREATION
THE RELIGIONS THAT THE PEOPLE TO WHOM THE BOOK WAS GIVEN WOULD HAVE BEEN FAMILIAR WITH
THAT IS THE INTENTION
AND IT IS VERY OBVIOUSLY SO, ANYONE WHO HAD READ THESE TEXTS WOULD RECOGNIZE THAT GOD BUILDS THE EARTH AS A LARGE TEMPLE AND MAKES MAN THE SAME WAY AN IDOL TO A GOD WOULD BE MADE AND BREATHED LIFE INTO TO WELCOME THE SPIRIT TO INDWELL THE NEW BODY
THAT IS A VERY DIRECT WAY OF SAYING THAT MAN IS MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD, AND IS ONLY ALIVE WITH THE PRESENCE OF THE SPIRIT OF GOD
