Man plunged himself into spiritual darkness by disobeying God. Christ came as the light to restore sinful man, as many as believe on His name, to a right relationship with God. References: Genesis 1-3 and the four Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. --Hank | ||||||
3 | Does God plunge mortals into ignorance? | Obad 1:8 | Reighnskye | 130521 | ||
Indeed Adam and Eve plunged the human race into spiritual darkness, but the rest of us were born into it, no? I am here differentiating between true spiritual consciousness (saints) versus a mere psuedo-consciousness (sinners). Do we who were born into sin possess the same liability of Adam and Eve, who once knew no sin before they fell? Is not our ignorance more complete than theirs? | ||||||
4 | Does God plunge mortals into ignorance? | Obad 1:8 | royfish306 | 130539 | ||
I believe there is a great differnce between humans before and after the fall. We have the knowledge of good and evil. All humans are not ignorant like the animals in this sense, we know to do good, and not to do evil, and are able to distinguish between the two. It is with a God given understanding(the knowledge of good and evil), not ignorance, that all humans are able to make the choice to follow christ, or to reject him. |

5 | Does God plunge mortals into ignorance? | Obad 1:8 | Reighnskye | 130694 | ||
If we possess the knowledge of good and evil as you say, (by which we are held accountable for our choice to accept or deny Christ), then from where does this knowledge originate? And how is it relayed? Can a mortal, unenlightened by the divine revelations of God, truly discern between good and evil? Due to the inherent failings of human conscience, the Law of Moses was necessitated. ---- Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! (Isaiah 5:20 NAS95) |
