Re-Created, Not Evolved.
Because He doesnt want us to walk around thinking we can survive by ourselves.Just begs the question, why would the creator of life, the universe & everything make animals that cannot survive by themselves?
Of course, we all live a natural lifetime and we all die sooner or later. The point is that had it not been for Gods intervention from time to time to protect and preserve us from the hazards of our environment we would die sooner rather than later.
He doesnt actually cause death and disease, He allows it. Death and disease is a natural hazard of our environment. You can blame Adam and Eve for that. God sometimes intervenes to protect us from death and disease, or He sometimes allows it to occur to remind us of how vulnerable we are without Him.Your use of Matt10 implies that god causes death and disease, so how does this fit into the notion of an all-loving deity?
God did not just create natural life for its own sake. He has a purpose for creating it. His intervention from time to time is to ensure that purpose is achieved. Natural life is just a means to an end.So, you are implying that the creator of the universe; of life and everything in it, has to constantly intervene to keep things alive (while letting some things die to keep others alive) because he couldn't set up a system that is completely self-sufficient in the first place?
Since God is the one guiding the process, then He is the one to demonstrate it. I simply take Him at his word.How does that make any sense whatsoever, and how do you demonstrate this involvement - and differentialte it froman unguided, completely natural process?
Except that scientists dont know how gravity works. All they did was replace God did it with dark-matter did it, and dark-matter demands even more faith in its existence than God does. Billions of people claim to have experienced God, but none has ever experienced dark-matter.* edit - can you not see the parallels with gravity here? People used to think that god had to hold the planets and stars in place, and he made them stay where they should be. Scientific advances and discovery showed that gravity is a completely natural phenomena and requires no such divine intervention to maintain the status quo *
