Subject: Is God still creating man in His image? |
Bible Note: Kalos, I agree that we are not created by God in the same way that Adam and Eve were. Our physical bodies grow from the genetic blueprints of our parents, as opposed to Adam being formed out of dust. On the other hand, I believe that each person's soul (or spirit depending on which forum member you ask) is unique. I don' think that it is merely a product of former creations, but is a new creation of God. "Remember, O Lord, what the measure of life is, for what vanity thou hast created all the sons of men!" (Psalm 89:47) So do you think that that the image of God is more directly connected with our physical bodies or our spirit (soul)? |
