Man: the image of God?

Evolutionists suggest that evolution is a  meaningless, undirected process and that  humans are a mere accident with no purpose or meaning in the universe. If humans evolved, then there is no eternal life and no God. This obviously flies in the face of Christian beliefs; we were created in the image of God. This view of creation gives our life meaning and purpose. Without God, there is no foundation for morality and each person can do what seems right at the time with no real consequences regarding  eternity-eternity does not exist. Man shares characteristics with both animals and God. We also see God's attributes in human creativity, reasoning and the ability to express love and purpose the holiness that existed before sin entered the world. The impulse to survive seen in every living thing cannot be described in biological terms; a divine Creator must have instilled this desire in each organism. Evolutionists suggest that the hope of an afterlife is a coping mechanism that has developed as a response to the bleakness of our existence, but God says it is a promise to all. Some will be in the presence of God and others will be cast into Hell.



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