Alone in a Crowd

Notice something else about the man whom God created. In the 19th verse we read that "out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field." And Adam found an orangutan for his mate. Or does it say "gorilla"? No, notice what it says: "And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field," but "for Adam there was not found an help meet for him." That verse emphasizes what we read in verse 18 which says that "the Lord God said, It is not good that man should be alone; I will make an help meet for him." Adam was created full-grown and with intelligence. Those who postulate that God used evolution to make man would have trouble explaining that because man coming into existence from some lower form of life or by an evolutionary process is not exactly what God said. "Out of the ground he formed man." Man was full-grown and intelligent, possessing the capability of rational thought. Intuitively Adam knew by looking at an animal what that animal should be called. Of all animals living everywhere on the earth that came to Adam to be named, he did not find a single one that could be a help meet for him. Adam was alone and he was unique.
