How Animals and Humans are Different From Each Other


 Even though animals and humans are warm-blooded and even though they were created both by God, they are different from each others.  Even though some animals are intelligent and have their own ways of communicating, they were not created as the image of God as humans were created.  

Unlike animals, we can have a special relationship with God.  He gave us the ability to talk and to think for ourselves, to have emotion and to make decisions.  He provided us with a spiritual nature so that we can know and worship him.

Another reason why we are different fromanimals is that God created humans so they can have dominover over the earth as the followingg verse state:

Genesis 1:28 "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth" (KJV).

 1 Corinthians 15:45  "And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit" (KJV).

Psalms 8:6-8
6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:

7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;


8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.
