Passage: Genesis 1:26-28
- God created man in His image and after His likeness.
- The purpose of an image is to display and represent the substance.
- Our goal as image bearers is not for the world to know us, but to know Him.
- God created us in His image so that we would look to Him to discover our identity.
- Being created in the Image of God means God created us to have a relationship with Him.
- The degree that you know who He is is the degree that you will know who you are.
- You can't know yourself apart from knowing God.
- Humans are the only creatures made in the image of God.
- Since man was created to represent God on the earth it required Divine collaboration from the complete Godhead to make man in Gods image.
- Every person was made in the image of God to show us the greatness of God.
