1 | GOD and Paul | 1 Cor 7:1 | Elderhecky | 172865 | ||
You have to look at the context of the entire verse. It was not good in God's heart for Adam to be alone, with no companion. Yes, he had God, but in order for us to be complete, to be all that God intended, we must have a helper to come along side of us, to complete us. Eve was a gift to Adam from God. If Adam refused God's gift that was motivated thru love, then that would have been a greater insult than what later transpired. We need to have the lenses of Eternity when we look at situations like this. | ||||||

Hello Corin, Trinity is not God's emotinoal companion. Trinity is the language given to identify the three persona of God (Father, Son, Holy Spirit). God does have emotions, but they are not limited as ours are. That is, they depend on nothing. When I get "angry" and act, my actions may be unjust and sinful. When God acts in anger, both his anger and actions are righteous and just. God needs nothing, including companionship. This is not to say He does not desire companionship, but He does not require it. The purpose of God's creation is far and above any need for companionship. It is to express His glory and to give honor and praise to Himself. We were created not for the purpose of keeping God company, but to worship Him. This may sound egotistical, but only until you begin to know Him and understand His sovereignty. God is sovereign; He is merciful and full of Grace. He loves us with an undieing love. He has created us and He has saved us. That is more than enough reason for Him to expect and for us to give praise and honor through our continual worship of Him. I hope this helps, Jeff |
