"Then God did not make our bodies, did He, father?"
"Why, certainly He did. Have you never read that God made all that was made?"
"It doesn't say anything in that verse about God's making a body does it father?"
"No but it says 'in His image and likeness,' that means just like Him," said the pastor.
"Then if I am just like Him, He in turn must be just like me, and in that case God would have a material body, and would not be wholly spirit."
"Why son, what queer ideas you have. As I said before this verse is only speaking of the soul; you will see farther on where He created the body. Now let us proceed."
"Father, what is meant by that part of this same verse, where it reads: 'And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and the fowl of the air,' etc.?"
"There has been considerable differences of opinion in regard to that passage. Personally, I think it means that we will have this dominion after we die and enter the spirit world, for we certainly haven't dominion over the fish and fowl here."
"James, do you think there will be fish and fowl in heaven?" meekly asked his wife.
"That is a very absurd question. Everybody knows there will be no fish and fowl in heaven," said her husband.
