Chap #4 – Family Gift Package

Our third example we list of God's gift packages, we'll call the Family package God created man, in His image, but stated that it was not good for man to be alone. (Gen. 2:18) So we remember that God created Eve. With that creation act, God made man into a Family package. We see here, an attribute of God Himself, copied into mankind – the critical attribute of FELLOWSHIP.

The description of that fellowship, of Adam and his spouse shows us a level of partnering called 'help meet'. As his help meet, she possesses the skills and strong points that Adam lacks. Likewise, her weak points and missing skills are found in Adam. This relationship is so crucial, God speaks of her as being an extension of Adam, himself. They are one; one Family package – made in God's image.

We want to stay keenly aware that each gift package we outline, is distinct from the others, and progressively reveals more of the character/attributes of God for us to learn, thereby making eternal fellowship with Him sweeter.

It would be well worth the few extra minutes needed, to review the preceding gift packages Trinity, Creation, and Family, to see what they've taught mankind about God, … and what they have not.
