Creation of Humans

This article provides excerpts from the book “Journey Through the Bible and Your Story”
which will be available on Amazon books later in the summer.

On our tiny planet many scientists theorize that a human with 37.2 billion cells in his/her body and highly developed brains came through billions of years of evolution. The Artificial Intelligence (AI) Copilot describes the theory of evolution as follows:

“Humans started as simple, single-celled organisms like amoebas in primordial seas, evolving into complex, multicellular life forms over billions of years from simple bacteria to fish, then amphibians, reptiles, and eventually mammals. Each step was shaped by natural selection and environmental changes. Feels a bit sci-fi, right?”

(You will find AI’s last sentence above is exactly where reality lands. Even AI questions this manmade theory as sci-fi.)

The Bible tells us that God created humans.

Genesis 2:7 “Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.”

Genesis 2:18 “The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”

God allows us to see beyond the manmade educational theories of creation and evolution to His truth of Colossians 1:15-16 about the Supremacy and Creativity of Christ.

“He (Christ) is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of all creation; for in him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or authorities—all things were created through him and for him.”

Why did God create human beings? God is love. I believe that He did not need us but having children that love Him would bring Him pleasure. He in His omniscience knew that many of the created humans would not want Him as a Heavenly Father and would rebel against Him. Yet in His love and foreknowledge He created.
