Does anyone else find it interesting that we are nowhere good enough to be in God's presence, yet WAY to good

Question

to have "come from monkeys"?

Answer 1

Haha, excellent point!

And if God is everywhere (omnipresent) and knows all, even how many hairs are on your head, why is He so picky about being in the presence of sin. According to Christians, He's in the presence of sin all the time by nature of his omnipresence!

Answer 2

Well OBVIOUSLY it is because white America has so embedded into so many peoples heads that monkey means black person, and saying they are way to good to come from monkeys is just their own repressed racism! If you notice, Jesus is white in almsot all pictures in cathedrals, Churches and other religious buildings, completely ignoring the fact that he was a MIDDLE EASTERNER!!!I find it hard to believe he was the one of 13 white men over there. HA! Im so smart. I bet people would believe this.

Nothing in Genesis makes any sense to me anyways. Adam and Eve, incest, no more garden... *sigh* If Eden was such a perfect place, and if God loved Humans so much, why was Satan there? I mean seriously. If God wanted to make a perfect paradise, wouldnt he have like, a NO SATAN sign posted at the door? Maybe some anti-satan guard sprayed on the tree of freaking knowledge? I think god needs to prove himself a little more. Back in the Old Testament it was easy for people to believe. He was giving em miracles like everyday! I havent seen a miracle in MY lifetime, and the only one any of us ever WILL see is when American Idol gets canceled.

Answer 3

Just idiots believe we were created 6000 years ago. All the fossil record proves modern humans to be at least 50,000 and close to human ancestors 1/2 a million years old.
God's presence what god's presence? If there a was a God he would have sent One message at the same time to all people in every corner of the earth this has never happened. Instead people kill each other in the name that same God.

Answer 4

First of all, we did not come from monkeys.God made animals before He made man and woman. God made man and women after His image. Be very careful as to what you say.

Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

I will never be good enough or worthy enough to stand in the presence of God, because I am a sinner. All I can do is my very best to obey God's word and repent of my sins daily, as well as to strive to change the weaker parts of me that causes me to sin.

Answer 5

If it was Gods creation to make us come from Monkeys, then that would be different. But there is no evidence to suggest this. Its a theory made up by some guy who didnt want to believe God created him.

The only reason we are not able to be in Gods presense is because of our sin-nature. Because man-kind in general decided to sin rather than be in Gods presense. (If you remember - God created us with the ability to walk with him in the Garden, and we screwed it up).

God wants nothing more than for us to accept Him and what Jesus did for us, so that we can be rid of our sins and spend eternity with him.

Answer 6

I feel presence of God. I believe that if we came from monkeys, it would be in the Bible.

Answer 7

its not about the word "good", who says we can't absorb His presence by praying etc....
Maybe the argument stemming from not coming from monkeys has nothing to do with your loose word "good".

theonlyda-you're an idiot plain and simple

Answer 8

Hmmmmm

Answer 9

Earth sucks, try to be a good person and maybe you will get into heaven at least that's what I am trying to do! All questions will be answered in time, unless we are reincarnated then **** this ****!

Answer 10
