The essence of living
The essence of man was to exercise full dominion over the creatures. It was the responsibility of being in control and discharge authority that made man unique. The purpose of creation was man; the purpose of man is responsibility. Man had a responsibility that brought him into the scene.
Of course without this very responsibility, man would not have showed up. Without responsibility, earth would have been a beautiful grave yard. Man did not create himself. Man is the foundation, but he needs a solid rock to rest on. If man is truely a foundation, it wouldn’t make no meaning if there is no solid rock on which it could rested on.
Man was actually bearing the name of God
God is the solid rock of which man could stand to form a formidable foundation. God been the reality of everything, without Him there is no true foundation. Man as a foundation can’t hold things up and together, except he is fully resting on a solid rock.
Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. ” (2Timothy 2:19 KJV)
Man was actually bearing the name of God. The Bible stated it clear that man is a product of God Almighty. When the natural parents give birth to a child, the child grows up bearing the name of the father. It does not matter the child complexion, height, or size. He or she is born of their earthly parents and they have no reason not the bear their name. Any child is a perfect product of the parents.
The strength of any foundation is determind by the rock it is built upon
Fear was introduced so that man will come to the knowledge of realising the rule and the important of every foundation been built on a solid rock. The strength of any foundation is determind by the rock it is built upon. It is only the foundation built on God Almighty that stands sure. Any foundation built out of God’s will and pertain will sink. There is absolute need of complete alignment and agreement between the foundation and the solid rock, for the foundation to be able to withhold storms. Jesus reminded us better when He gave the parable of a builder.
47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:
48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.” ( Luke 6 verse 47 to 48 KJV)
God made man the cornerstone and Himself the bedrock on which man can stand film. You can’t talk about the foundation of any monument and conclude it without talking and properly exermine the rock on which it will be established. It is the bedrock that determined the foundation.
God is that bedrock on which man could to withstand the storms of life
Man as a corner stone will make not an inch without God. God is that bedrock on which man could to withstand the storms of life. If the corner stone is not properly rested on the solid rock, when storms hit on it, it will collapse. Jesus as our role model explained further,
“But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.” (Luke 6 verse 49 KJV)
God as the bedrock on which man stand, that guarantee success in life. Every thing to succeed in life can only be trace and found in God. God is the author of man’s greatness in life. If you missed it with God, you can’t get it else where.
Jesus talked of doing in the verses above, that is to remind us we have a place of responsibility. Resting on God will enable us to effectively and efficiently accomplished our responsibilities. Man is the reason of creation and that should make man developed the sense of responsibility. It is good to know the essence of God introducing responsibility for mankind was so that man can become responsible.
