Is Man an Animal?
by Arthur C. Custance
Doorway Paper Number 21
(1972)custance.org/old/animal/Evolutionary propaganda has duped many into thinking that manis nothing more than a higher animal. This idea is comfortable to many because if man is just a beast, and there is no point to his existance, then there are no obligations to do good. Everything is permissable, and nobody is to blame because they are just following their "animal instincts". And if man is just an animal, he must be caged like one. This humanist idea is the very foundation of the New World Order. Decadance, decay, big governement and social control are the result. But the Bible says that man is no animal. Man differs from animals in so many subtle ways - anatomically, physiologically, psychologically, mentally, spiritually - that it is no longer justified to classify him in the animal kingdom at all. It is a study of man's assessment of himself apart from revelation, concluding with God's intention of True Man as revealed in the Person of Jesus Christ. Only man can repent of sin. He has a connection to God that no animal posesses. He is not an animal, he is created in the very image of God, and God came to Earth as a man to redeem them. That is a connection that no other creration, not even the angels can claim.
