God’s closing remark:

Stand and deliver
You are children of the Lord. Hold your head up high.

Meaning: The phase stand and deliver means to give up something to someone who demands it. (Originally used by highway robbers asking for passengers' valuables.)31

Question: What do you mean by Stand and deliver?

God’s answer:

Be a man!

God creatively uses this phrase in association with man standing upright, a trait that differentiated us from primates and to once again to reiterate that we need to disassociate ourselves from them, for we did not evolve from apes/primates, To be upright also means to be righteous.

Question: Why did you use the phrase stand and deliver, given the meaning of this phrase?

God’s answer:

“Give to Caesar what is Caesar's but
give to God what is God's."

(Matthew 22:21)

Question: What should we give to you?

God’s answer:

“Your money or your life”
Give up your life.

Note the relationship of this and God’s previous answer: Give to Caesar what is Caesar: money. Give to God what is God’s – your life.

Question: What is the relationship of this with holding your head up high?

God’s answer:

Be dignified
Don’t be an ape.
Stop acting like monkeys.
Be true to thyself.

Ape as a verb means Imitate (someone or something), especially in an absurd or unthinking way:32

As God said: Be a man! We did not evolve from primates (some ape-like animal30) but we sure act like we do. God uses both apes and monkeys together because they are related. We are not related to them yet we are more like them that we are like God (our true relative).
