The Image Of God According To The Bible....#TopicReview
This is a very interesting topic to really pounder about, one that speaks to our inner being to reflect on whats is written in the Bible....
According to the book of Genesis , the Bible says after God's finished all creation he decided to make man after his IMAGE and LIKENSESS, if you reason carefully these are two different aspect.
From my perspective rather I'd loved to look at it from this angle that We all understand that Jesus is the very spoken word of God, the Bible tells us that through him all things were created without which nothing was made that was made, and that this word became flesh and lived among us ..John 1.
We also need to understand how Jesus was born not according to the normal protocol of human formulation , the Holy spirit breath on Mary and she conceived right?...
Now we know that Jesus was a child, a teenager and a man just like we all are, now if Jesus the son of God also looked like us, and of course Jesus was right in the beginning with God making all God spoke about Happen, if he created man in the image and likeness of God then will it be wrong to say Jesus christ God in human form looked differently?...of course not.
I strongly belive the image God spoke about was a representation of himself which we later saw in Jesus,....
Talking about the likeness now to me portrays the characteristics such as holiness, righteousness, etc......
So the image of God which I think we were created to look like God, if not then we would have looked like the chimpanzees or monkeys or another Animal as science obviously told us how we evolved 😆.
The likeness of God is everything that makes God God, which we now posses, like to be holy and righteous, and to live Godly, we have our spirit, soul and body just like God has three personality in him, the God head, the son and the holy spirit,
However my review is not overwriting the teachings which I just received but gives me a more deeper meaning to what is actually the image and likeness of God...
