Bible Note: Hello jonp, This is a little off topic perhaps, but I have a question about a statement in your post. You wrote: "just as the angelic court are assumed in God's words 'Let us make man in OUR image' (Genesis 1.26). We are given a recognition that such spiritual beings exist but not given the details." I too have heard it taught that God was speaking to the angels when He said "let us make man in OUR image", but I have always struggled wtih this teaching. Perhaps you can shed some light on it for me. Where in Scripture are we to draw the conclusion that God was speaking to angels. I guess the questions that need to be answered are; 1. where does Scripture state that angels were created in God's image? 2. where in Scripture does it state that man was created in the image of angels; or the image of God and angels? Help with this please. I have also heard this passage taught as referring to the Trinity and having heard this accepted it as being scriptural. Thanks in advance for any help you can give here. God bless, Jeff |
