Intellectual Distrust or Un-complicated Trust
Look, the way I see it is that there are 2 ways of Thinking and or interpreting all that is Written in the book of Genesis and that being is that there is the Intellectual way of thinking whereas everything has to be Factual and or Metaphorically Explained or the Actual Interpretation of the Gospel.
No one can Read the Gospels without Feeling the Actual Presence of Jesus,
because His Personality Pulsates in every Word.
No Myths are Filed with such Life.
Albert Einstein
I for one, choose to be of the latter in taking everything literally for what God says without question I can always ask Him later if He could please be able to explain Himself Intellectually of what He meant – if still scratching my head, because the way I see it is that “We with our intellectual Way of Thinking” haven’t done so very well in terms of our Responsibility as being Good Caretakers over all of all following,
24 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so.
25 Or God made the wild animals according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds, and God saw that it was Good.
26 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, [a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
27 So God created mankind in His own image, In the Image He created them; male and female He created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
29 Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.
30 And To all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground everything that has the breath of life in it - I give every green plant for food." And it was so.
In fact, as a Disaster, “We, in God’s Image” have been a Total Failure from the get-go - who got up and went nowhere “Intellectually” and in Complete Denial of Our Irresponsibility Actions and or Behavior.
Yet, still, it matters, but - as long as we believe that Jesus Christ Was The Son of God Who Died On The Cross For Our Sins and Accept Him Into Your Heart as Your Lord and Savior like I have, then you too can ask Him - Intellectually - what He meant by any Child-like Statements that you simply didn’t Quite Understand in Simple Terms.
