The Great Difference
The biggest difference between Man and all of God's other creations(including animals, plants, sun, the angels, etc...)
lies in the fact that Man and only Man alone,
is an Intrinsic Creation.
All other creation belong under the category of Instrumental Creation.
Intrinsic things have value of their own, and on their own.
Intrinsic creation exist for its own good.
Instrumental things have value based on their uses.
Instrumental things exist to serve a certain good.
Understanding the above will enable one to better grasp the reasonings for questions like:
- Why does God still allow options in this world, since Jesus is the only Way?
- Why does God leave Man in hell if Man refuses to believe in Jesus?
The above is just a brief introduction to this topic.
We shall talk more about it in time to come.
