Bible Question: Why do you think God did not leave it to the man to decide who his patner would be? |
Bible Answer: Genesis 2:18 The LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him." 19 Now the LORD God had formed out of the ground all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. 20 So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds of the air and all the beasts of the field. But for Adam no suitable helper was found. This kinda, sorta hints that God did give Adam an opportunity to choose a helper from the available choices, but none was found as suitable. don |
