    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 9, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,015 views

    God created us in his own image and likeness, with intellect and free will. He respects our dignity by allowing even bad choices.

    The temptation that humans in an unredeemed state constantly undergo is the temptation to create gods in their own image and likeness. So Zeus, the king of the gods, was created in the image of earthly kings–capricious, selfish, lusty and unfaithful. Dionysius, god of wine and revelry, was a ...read more

    We hear it often said: "Well, I’m only human!" We need to think twice before we make such a statement.

    CREATED IN GOD’S IMAGE AND LIKENESS “Then God said, ‘Let us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.’ So God ...read more

    When we can’t reflect the image and likeness of God, we try to make him in our image and likeness.

    Scripture Reading: Mark 8:11-13 The Pharisees came and began to question Jesus. To test him, they asked him for a sign from heaven. He sighed deeply and said, “Why does this generation ask for a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to it.” Then he left them, got back into the boat and ...read more

    Explores our divine origin and purpose, emphasizing that we are created in God's image and called to reflect His likeness in our lives.

    Beloved friends, as we gather here today in the house of the Lord, I am reminded of the words of John Calvin who once said, "We are not to reflect on the wickedness of men but to look to the image of God in them, an image which, covering and obliterating their faults, an image which, by its beauty ...read more

    Who's My Neighbor

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on Apr 1, 2012

    How do we understand that we are created in the image of God? What would be its effect on us, as we reflect God in His creation? Could it be that because we are created in His image or likeness, we could also have an idea why we were born?

    “Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.’ So God created man in ...read more

    The problem with making an image of God is that WE are supposed to be in the image and likeness of God.

    Thursday of the 4th Week in Lent 2018 Reformation/Revolution Humans have, from the very beginning, resisted God’s will, even though that will is for our joy and sanctification. God wants us to be so much like Himself that we can be called His adopted children, even now. And He wants as perfect a ...read more

    Paul shows us the end game of God's plan--conforming us into the image and likeness of His Son.

    Today, in a very real way, we reach the pinnacle of the book of Romans. Paul reveals the end game–essentially what everything is working toward. He’s taken us through a long journey to get here–a journey that was sometimes difficult to understand; a journey that was sometimes tedious in its ...read more

    Romans tells us that God has redeemed us and predestined us to bear the likeness of Christ reflecting His holiness, His Heart, and His glory. The likeness of the Son of God is to be borne in the lives of His true followers.

    We sense that we’ve got an image problem. Like Adam and Eve before us, we try to fix it with clothing. But it can only be truly fixed with the garments of Salvation which our Lord provides through his Son Jesus

    “I delight greatly in the LORD; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness.” Does this look all right? Do these go together or do they clash? Does this make me look fat? These are the kinds of questions we impose upon ...read more
