if evolution is not an acceptable theory to the faithful....then why according to the bible does God have hands and legs and other assorted body parts ....clearly he must have "evolved" them for some need according to the bible God created Man in his own image which is proof that God has body parts that God needed body parts or had body parts is an indication that God was under the jurisdiction of the laws of physics or some other force stronger than himself which place limitations on his movements and required or forced him to use extentions or develop appendages so evolution since it is only a theory can be argued or denied by the faithful ....but there is no getting around that one question why does God have hands and legs Hello Funches! In spite of the use of anthropomorphisms in Genesis, it is not hard to understand that the author was referring to history...This worked for "the church" until "science" intervened and compromise became necessity......."A necessary evil" except...after Adam and Eve took from the fruit...God said...."they have become like us"...which is an indication that anthropomorphisms were not being used also the use of anthropomorphisms in the bible unless done within a "teaching" or a "parable story" would turn the bible into a book of fables and not the true word of God .... which is why the book of Genesis during the six days of creation would not have been told in any other form but The Truth ... because anything but the truth,.... is a lie

God has hands so he can wipe away your tears. God has legs so he can walk beside you. When one thinks of a spirit, they normally picture something like Casper. But if we do not walk in the "afterlife" then why would Heaven have streets? Revelation 21:21 21And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.

Before then, they were like little kids and innocent. Little kids tend to take things that are not theirs, they tend to hit one another until taught differently, ect. They do not know good and evil. Has nothing to do with our physical structure. Genesis 3:22 22And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever

You could take a billion theist to see a male dumbo octopus and a female monkey have sex and the monkey has a human baby and they still will call it Gods miracle.

Never would happen, goes completely against nature. God's miracles are not things that can not happen. Your example here could not possible happen, there wouldn't even be a reason for it to happen. Everything happens for a reason, regardless if one see's it or not.

Why wouldn't he? God has hands so he can wipe away your tears. you mean the tears I'm getting from laughing at that post even so...you are saying that tears as so heavy and that God's mind is so weak that it would require God to evolve muscles in order to wipe away tears

But fact still remains there are gates and streets in Heaven. Thus, one would use hands to open the gates and legs to walk on the streets. And you mentioned God's mind. If God has a mind, where does his mind lay? In his head maybe? If he has a head, why would he not have other body parts? Why only a head and mind? Revelation 21:21 21And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.

Us evolving from something as apes or something of such is a theory. A theory is nothing more then an educated guess. They are making this guess because they do not wish to believe in the truth we've already been given about God creating man. If they believed that, they would then have to believe the rest. But they do not wish to, they wish to believe they know all, so they are stuck with making educated guesses.

Is not my place to judge one's eternal well being. But what you say is irrelevant anyways. God does not throw any child into anything. Children of God will have eternal life, the rest eternal death. Not all of us are children of God. You are born first of the flesh, then that is where the term "born again" comes into play. When one is born again, they have been reborn a child of God.
