Humanity

  What does the Christian religion say about Humanity? People of the Christian faith believe that all people are equal. It is said in the bible that God created men and woman equally and that they are here to watch over all of creation, [ animals, the environment ect..] as a leader or protector. Humans were made to be superior to all other creation.  What is the Christian view of the origin, characteristics and destiny of humanity? The Christians have two creation stories in the bible. You can find them in the book of Genesis at the very beginning. The first story states that God created the world and everything in it.. it took him 6 days. On the 6th day he created man and woman and on the 7th day he rested this is why Sunday is the Sabbath day. The other states that God created the Garden of Eden and Adam and Eve. Either way God created the universe and humans. The destiny of us humans is to life on the earth and be stewards of creation. This means we must help to restore and take care of the environment and animals. We are also here to spread peace and the word of God and Jesus. It is also said that each person has their own destiny and everyone is here for a different reason. How are humans called to act in the world? Humans are called to act in a peaceful way, to spread joy happiness and love. The word of God is not a judgemental or harsh thing but it is loving and forgiving.
