Angels and Animals.

Have you ever thought that at the beginning of creation, there were too groups designed before God created man? Angels and Animals. Only after God created their impulses, did he create humans with both impulses.

Animal Impulse: Give in and let our cravings rule us
Angel Impulse: Denial of physical and the failure to acknowledge our sexuality is central to what makes us human.

And then we were created. Humans which have both. How we live matters because God made us human. We have both impulses but the ability to make a choice of how we should control those desires.

1 corinthians 6:19 teaches us that we are temples of the holy spirit. (angel)
Society teaches us that we can not control our desires. (animal)
God leaves it up to us to continue the ongoing creation of the world. (human)

If, as humans we are continuing the creation of the world in which we live, then every action and decision effects the whole world and future. So what kind of world are we creating?
