from ruth
The best answer I can come up with is this: God didn’t want a race of robots who did not have a free will.
nabanggit na ito ni kuya banshik di ko lang matandaan kung saan i also mentioned this to always sa RF ata, but then similarly i think that free choice was given to us in order for us to prove our love and obedience to God, because we have the total control to decide wether to follow God or not. walang pilitan.a good example was cain and abel how they differ in their offerings to God.
God had to allow the possibility of evil for us to have a true choice of whether to worship God or not.
agree, but then God gave the angels a free choice also, so when these fallen angels chose evil, God just respected their choices and just proved that the free choice he gave to these angels were free indeed.
He must allow evil, because the choice must be without restrain. there was the gift of freedom.
If we never had to suffer and experience evil, would we truly know how wonderful heaven is?
Adam and Eve had a foretaste of heaven, but they chose evil, i would say in my Pov that evil was the result of a choice which God allowed when he gave the freedom of choosing.
God did not create evil, but He allowed it. If He hadn’t allowed evil, we would be worshipping Him out of obligation, not by a choice of our own free will.

2. that man was created in God's image Gen 1:26 created as a personal image like God, and a moral image with conscience ( ops napasali na naman)
How could one explain about the early man who resembles the ape?

There are people too who resemble a horse, but it is not necessarily that those people came from horse Though we can call them yokaba

Pre-historic men like neanderthal or australopithecus man resemble the apes, while the bible describes adam as the first creation in the image of God, I find the resemblance between the species as two opposing facts of what an image of god seems to be.

What is your perception as to the image of God?

I would go for the physical image which is visible and can easily be interpreted by men. If the earliest men resemble apes then we can deduct that adam should have been as they were. Ironically, such descriptions of " should be" similarities were not emphasized or not mentioned at all.

If your belief is for the visible one as in a physically attached as to your perception of an image, then, how can you account that the DNA of a human being is far different from that of an ape P
Please show your proof scientifically

That would be a weak response because men in themselves have each DNA which is entirely different from the other even twins.
But cloning .
The visible image of god and the primitive man presents a different story.

Your first statement is entirely correct and it also disproves your previous post regarding man coming from lineage of ape
Cloning?
Well, how about scanning?
If one has to deny the visible image of God, then, one has to deny the existense of the mind

Why can't a knowledgeable christian explain the true meaning of " visible image of God?" rather than resort to many definitions which are either vague or confusing?
