benalvino:

and now we are made in adams image not God's image...

Adam was made in the image of God, we are off springs of Adam, so we carry same features as Adam.

Remember, Adam lost the likeness/character of God after the transgression, this gave birth to sin and death. Sin and death has been imputed into every descendant of Adam.

ijawkid:

I still don't know where you got this crappy gospel from....

1 corinthians 11:7

New International Version
(©2011)
A man ought not to cover his head,
since he is the image and glory of
God; but woman is the glory of
man.


International Standard Version
(©2012)
A man should not cover his head,
because he exists as God's image
and glory. But the woman is man's
glory.

Is adam God??....

Smh!!!.....

Sometimes I don't know where you are heading to......

I have already explained this to you... go and read it again...

shdemidemi:

Adam was made in the image of God, we are off springs of Adam.

of course... see what the bible says...
And just as we have borne the image of the earthly man, so shall we bear the image of the heavenly man.
this is why we are born in sin... and this is why Jesus came so we cant be born again in Christ image...

When Adam had lived 130 years, he had a son in his own likeness, in his own image; and he named him Seth.

ijawkid doesn't understand that we have a deformed image. of God... thanks to Adam. image is not how we look anyway...

question is why do we have to be in the image of Christ? because he is the image of his father.... when we get in the image of Christ then our deformed image of God will be restored...

Should paul have penned down the verse like this??.....

New International Version

A man ought not to cover his head,
since he is the deformed image and glory of
God; but woman is the glory of
man.


......

I have told you a million times.......we are image(s) of God deformed or perfect......

You don't have to use the watchtower literature....its not your basis for doctrine...

Bro, man was made in the image of God, we are not the physical image of God cos God is invisible. I can't see anything contrary to that in the verse you have quoted.

I don't understand what the argument is.

Let us make [b]man[/b]in our image...God made man in His image and likeness, therefore God himself is not a man. The scripture says Christ is the visible image of God.

7 But a man should not cover his head, because he is made like God and is God’s glory

I know God is not a man and has never been a man........

The basic fundamental truth is man is the [b]image of God......simple and short.....

We display Gods qualities......we reflect his attributes.....

You know hear say we be him glory as well??......

Remember Paul is speaking to believers not unbeliever- When you become a believer you become like Adam before the fall.

I believe this is a better interpretation of what Paul is saying

He was first called a man before he was made to be in the image and likeness of God. The real image of God that we carry is invisible. do you get it?

ijawkid you don't really understand how this is explained...

from Genesis you can see the likeness and image of God Adam have before he lost it... God cursed him and from here the deformation came... we are born in Adams image and likeness... therefore the curse is in us... to revise the curse we have to be in the image of Christ

Question for you... we are in God's image so why do we have to be in Christ image? isn't God's image suppose to be better than Christ image? why do we have to move from God's image to Christ image before God will accept us? i bet you cant answer this... except you agree that we are born in Adams image and likeness. let me go on with explaination

Genesis 5:3... "When Adam had lived 130 years, he had a son in his own likeness, in his own image; and he named him Seth."
Man [/b]is totally unique among all God's creature. [b]We are the only beings created in the image and likeness of God through Adam. But when Adam fall into sin, God cursed Adam, Genesis 3:19-20, "By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return. Adam named his wife Eve, because she would become the mother of all living." Since Adam sinned, all born thereafter inherited a sinful nature from their parents; Psalm 51:3, "For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me; Psalm 58:3, "Even from birth the wicked go astray; from the womb they are wayward and speak lies."

Man in the image and after the likeness of Adam:

In the Heritage Illustrated Dictionary of the English Language:

"Image" means a reproduction of the appearance of someone or something, especially, a sculptured likeness.

"Likeness" denotes the state or quality of resembling or being like something.

"In the creation story the two words are practically synonymous these are always likeness and image...."

1 Corinthians 11:7, "A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man."

A free translation of Genesis 1:26, "Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."

firstly The image of God does not denote physical likeness for God is a spirit and a spirit does not have parts and passions as a man does.

secondly, The two expressions mean more than man having dominion over nature.

finally, From Scripture we learn that it means knowledge, righteousness and holiness. It refers to moral likeness not physical likeness.

Ephesians 4:23-24, "to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness."

Colossians 3:10, "and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator."

shdemidemi:

He was first called a man before he was made to be in the image and likeness of God. The real image of God that we carry is invisible. do you get it?

Demi oooo.......

You are moving here and there......

Answer YES or NO...

Are we Gods image or not??.......

shdemidemi:

he will never get it... nothing we say he will get...
and i can show you the reason why he will never get it from their watchtower magazine...

Are we Gods image or not??.......

We have an invisible image of God in us, the only visible image of God is Christ according to the books. Man lost the likeness/ character of God after the fall but kept the image, we regain the likeness of God by believing the gospel of Christ.

benalvino:

instead of you to answer then question you they talk plenty... Answer the question. and answer if we are in adams image or not also?

If you are immoral you are not in God's image... adam's image and likeness is Curse with death and Christ image and likeness is eternal life. thats the thing... I told you before that both of us are right... But by heritage we are in adams image by default thats why we are all born sinners...

benalvino:

lol no... but if they dont tell you, you never take it.
