Do you love God? (103)

Croatalus, common sense is how I came to that conclusion, along with a knowledge of other Scriptures that present the essence of God as Spirit (John 4:24). As God is Spirit, the "image of God" spoken of in Genesis 1:25 refers to the spiritual and nonmaterial part of man, that which sets him apart from the rest of creation. If you read Bible commentaries or other studies of these texts you will understand how the use of the word image is not always to be taken in the physical sense.

If you think that all of the Bible is to be taken literally, then that is your right. It surprises me though as you often refer to Biblical scholars, but if you knew anything about Biblical scholarship, you would know that Scripture is a book of several literary forms, and scholars often interpret Scriptures in a figurative rather than literal sense.

I did not know you had dyslexia, but you were using two completely different words (interpret, interrupt) with completely different meanings. Perhaps your typing "interrupt" rather than "interpret" was a Freudian admittance to what you were doing in the thread, lol.
