Apr 28, 2021 · God created Adam from the dust of the ground by breathing life into him. So he literally carried the “breath of God” inside of him. We were given physical bodies, but the Lord also gave us spirits, the way He exists.

The blessing of sharing in God’s creative process by producing offspring was given to other living things besides man (1:22, 24-25). But man alone was commanded not only to fill the earth, b...
A man died and they put on his tombstone: “He came, stayed a while, and left.” Sad epitaph!
