Most people only understand a fraction of what the Bible says.
Why God Made You
gives tools to interpret the Bible that are also used to interpret literature and the US Constitution. Children can understand the Bible stories but adults can spend a lifetime discovering the deeper wisdom. The book shows the Creation story in Genesis tells us WHY God created when most people wrongly think it is telling us HOW God created the universe. God gave humans a different kind of life compared to plants and animals. It shows we are made in the image of God to rule over the Earth by developing it and enjoying the beautiful world God made and gave to us. You will discover Genesis is the foundation that helps understand the rest of the Bible. The words
made in God image
means God made us like Him. We learn Jesus is the exact image of God and the image of a perfect human. This means God made us to be like Jesus to have godly character. Since God is love, we are most like God when we love one another. Because God is love, He is the source of love and life. Even though the book discusses serious philosophical question, it is written at a seventh grade level for easy understanding.
