Bible Question:
hi, in the beginning God made one MAN[Adam].I hope that Adam had a lighter skin almost like the one of Jesus. How did it happen that we now have so many colours? Is there any particular race which resembles God than others? The answer to this question will help me to help others.thanx |
Bible Answer: Aurrance, Skin color is not an issue with God, my friend. God's essence is Spirit - John 4:24. Man looks (and often judges) by the outward appearance but God looks at the heart. When God created Adam, He did not create him to reflect God's skin-tone. "In God's image" means that Adam (and the rest of us) are eternal spirit beings, as God is a Spirit Being. Adam didn't even know he was naked until AFTER he sinned. This was when Adam and Eve became self-concious instead of God-concious. There are only two "races" now, my friend. You have either placed your faith and trust in Jesus Christ and are "in Christ" or you are ignorant of or reject Him and are still "in Adam." Read the books of Romans. Being "in Adam" and his image is not a good thing. Being "in Christ" and in His image by being spiritually born-again is what matters. Flesh and blood will not inherit the kingdom of God, Aurrance, only those who are born from above - see John 3:3-6. Skin tone is irrelevant according to God. What really matters is being a new creation "in Christ" - Gal 6:15. Have you placed your faith and trust in Christ alone, my friend? Hope this helps. ChristLifer2001 |
