I was meditating on God's Word, that's when I saw Homo sapiens divinus (the best scientific name for the new creation in my estimation). Alas, when I decided to write on it & I was going to check google for pictures that might portray the concept; I discovered something I'd never known or imagined; that's why I'm writing this follow-up post.
There is actually an entire subculture in relation to Homo sapiens divinus. Ranging from fiction to science to new age/human consciousness religions; there are different lines of thought about either Homo sapiens divinus or Homo divinus. Now, all of them have a right to believe what they choose to believe. Some believe that Homo divinus is the progenitor of Homo sapiens. Some believe that is what Adam & Eve were; that they were given God-consciousness and, after the fall, produced Homo sapiens. Some cults believe man will evolve (in consciousness) to become Homo divinus, albeit a different kind from the original. The only actual reference to the term "Homo sapiens divinus" is fictional.
Now, what does that have to do with you, my friend? If you're reading this, and you are a child of God by virtue of believing in Jesus Christ; hear what the bible says about you:
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Now all things are OF GOD.....(2Corinthians 5:17 & 18)
He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have ETERNAL LIFE.....(1John 5:12 & 13)
You're a new creature, a new species, a new kind of being. All things in you have become new, and all these new things are of God! You have a new kind of life that Homo sapiens sapiens does not have because it is only available in the Son of God (Jesus). This life makes you a son of God, just like Jesus. Now He has it & you have it; it's eternal life, the God-kind of life, the nature of God, the DIVINE life. That is why you're no longer Homo sapiens sapiens like Joe next door; you are Homo sapiens divinus now. Mark it: DIVINUS.
I write to you who believe in Jesus, that you may know that you have a higher life, and that you may truly live this higher life here on earth. It's not an existence that ended with Adam & Eve or that will begin after death alone. No, my friend! It's a present tense reality!
I write to announce to the entire world: Homo sapiens divinus is not just the fictional group of humans in the Assassin's Creed game; Homo sapiens divinus is real!
I write to announce to the scientific world; to evolutionists, creationists & creation-evolutionists alike: Homo divinus may or may not be a progenitor of Homo sapiens; but greater than Homo divinus is here. Homo sapiens divinus has come into being! It happened 2,000 years ago when the Galilean Jew named Jesus died for you & rose again. Everyone who believes in Him today becomes Homo sapiens divinus, not by virtue of anatomical or physiological change; but by the power of a superior (spirit) life! You can too, yes you can!
I write to announce to all the new age, human consciousness & transcendental meditation religions & groups: there may or may not be a Homo divinus coming, but Homo sapiens divinus is already here! He is not merely a future concept, a unifying of minds or a fully self-aware human. No sir! He is a present day being that possesses the nature of God, is indwelt by divinity & has the mind of Christ! We are Homo sapiens divinus. Join us, you can; yes you can!
I write to remind you, my fellow Homo sapiens divinus, of who you are. When the world & the surrounding circumstances threaten your existence & challenge everything you hold dear; when the storm comes & the rain beats down hard on you, let the soul of an overcomer rise within you; remind yourself who you are. You are a human born of God (Homo sapiens divinus); you have overcome the world!!! There aren't enough exclamation marks in the world to shout-write it!
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
