If we are created in G-d’s image, then if G-d can judge, then we can too, in the lesser matters before us.

That gives us the G-d given right to judge, even if G-d is our creator.

But in post 400, Elsie did not say we do not have the right to judge. He said we do not have the right to judge using MAN'S standards.

If we are created in G-d’s image, then if G-d can judge, then we can too, in the lesser matters before us. Well; "we" used to be; but from the Scriptures that was a LONG time ago!


Genesis 1:26
 
Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
 
 
 
Genesis 5:1-8
1 This is the written account of Adam’s family line.

When God created mankind, he made them in the likeness of God. He created them male and female and blessed them. And he named them “Mankind” when they were created.

When Adam had lived 130 years, he had a son in his own likeness, in his own image; and he named him Seth. After Seth was born, Adam lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Adam lived a total of 930 years, and then he died.

When Seth had lived 105 years, he became the father of Enosh. After he became the father of Enosh, Seth lived 807 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Seth lived a total of 912 years, and then he died.

 

 

And so; here we are today...

Good Luck!!!


Job 40:1-5
 
 
1 The Lord said to Job:
 

2 “Will the one who contends with the Almighty correct him?
    Let him who accuses God answer him!”
 
3 Then Job answered the Lord:
 

4 “I am unworthy—how can I reply to you?
    I put my hand over my mouth.
5 I spoke once, but I have no answer—
    twice, but I will say no more.”
