Material possessions, power, success in life must not hinder a person from humbly obeying God's will. Even if they reach the pinnacle of power and figures of influence and affluence, the people of God should never lose sight of the true essence of humility and meekness.<quoted text>
A humble person is not arrogant, self-centered, vain, boastful and egoistical.Humbling experience in whatever form should make man realize his feebleness and powerlesness- and his need for Almighty God.

Have you ever heard of Zeus or Pan or Satyr (didn't he go around frollicking with the animals)?
9:2-3 From the beginning Genesis Man was to have dominion over fish, birds, cattle, and other animals (1:26). Presumably this meant they could all be tamed when needed. But humans began as vegetarians (1:29). The reference to clean animals by the time of Noah (7:2, 8) suggests that in due course the meat of vegetarian animals and birds was eaten. But after the flood God said that "Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you." Maybe the animals had become "unclean" because Adam had dominion over them and had used those select animals wrongly in one of his Satyrist bouts. Puts a new meaning to the term, "Squeal like a pig boy!" -Deliverance It is not until Leviticus 18:23, that the law of beastility is set forth: |

18:23 Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it [is] confusion.
Genesis 9 1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.(see- no mention of the wives just Noah and his sons...those pan-sexual or androgynous Alien beings) 2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.(Was this because Adam sodomized the animals and created that fear in his acts of beastiality? They are delivered unto man's hands) 3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.(As opposed to dead meat? Every moving thing? Does this include people? Herbs, the cannibas activist would be all for this phrase!) 4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.(God noticed that he made a mistake or that man is stupid enough to eat each other. They take everything so literally. Cannibalism, I wonder if they can pen that on Cain as well?) 5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man.(Will he get off this beast obsession? Does God have a secret obsession with beastiality as well? I think he is saying that the life force of an animal is just as important as that life force of a man, comparing us to beasts of burden, perhaps? Or that you must offer sacrifices in honor or as pentance to the life force that you take?) 6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.(Is God saying that Man is an image of God or a Reflection of God, perhaps he is saying that man is divine and has the power of God a miniature God or Demi-God? By taking each other's lives you are taking the lives of Gods?) Hey its all in your good book!!! |

No matter how rich a man may be, no matter how wise and intelligent he has become, no matter how much power he weilds, yet if he does not know and understand God and be humble to obey His will his life is shallow and no blessings. |
