What is man?

What is man? For some, the answer is no more than an animal

As such there is no need for moral restraint; each may do as they wish.

This life is all there is, there is no future bliss; death ends it all.

No God nor man can therefore  tell them what they should or should not do.


What is man? A self made creation with the highest IQ of all

Superior to the apes but of the same evolutionary line

Their greater IQ, they believe, entitling them to rule over all

,and to therefore ‘ do their own thing ‘  in any and all circumstance.


What is man? The scriptures place them on a higher plane.

The psalmist declares God’s view to be …’ a little lower than the angels’,

the object of the love of a God who desires to establish a relationship with them by name.

Such a relationship is secured by Christ’s  death and resurrection for all who believe in the Lord.

 

What is man? A sinner who can be saved by the grace of God through  faith in Jesus Christ

This offer is made to all, that they may ‘ believe in the Lord and live ‘,

And yet sadly mankind’s arrogance and apathy often leads them to reject the Lord Jesus Chris.

However to those who do believe is given ‘ the power to become the children of God’.
