Genesis 1:26-30
Man is Made in God's Image and Likeness
26 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
27
So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
We are made in God's Image...Because God made in His Image, we can seek Him, learn about Him, and get to know Him better...This is one of the Great Things of being created by Him and in His Own Image...We are given some of God's likeness, since we are made in His Image...
In the Greatest commandment, Jesus says to love God and to love neighbor...Man is forever linked to God and all his neighbors...This is done through our Creator, who made us in His Image...
