1) It's a foolish Ideology that humanity is created in the Image of God.
2) No one knows the Image of God but He claims to have ears, legs, eyes. His hearing, seeing, legs is not like that of any of His creations. Come to think of it, will God be a male or female, if His eyes were to be like ours(let's assume it's bigger than ours) it means He will only see what is in the front and see not what is behind. We have intestines, which is only available to animals that only eat for digestion. Such a blasphemy against God Almighty is a reprehensible claim which must be strongly shun and avoided.

@Adepeters2027, lets answer your question here.

I said, no man can be renewed in Christ and still fall off or reject Christ. And you wanted to understand how.

Now, let me begin by saying this. To be re-newed means to make something afresh AGAIN.

The key word is 'AGAIN'. Why does it need renewing? What happened to it's former state? First of all it means, there was a former state which was better than what it became, hence it needs restructuring.

So, why does the soul of man needs transforming and renewing? It's becos the soul died.

But how does the soul (Consciousness) which is an eternal component of man dies?

The death of the spiritual entities is not the same as the death of the earthy entities. The death of the earthy entities causes us to cease to exists in the earthy realm. We disconnect from every activity taking place here. We are separated from those we love. Our bodies decay and vanish.

(A friend of mine is going to be buried today, 29 Sept 2017. He died in his sleep, he lived alone so no one knew he had died until 4days later.

A strong, agile and intelligent man, started decaying and smelling, that's how the living got to know he was gone). He is separated from us, but he is not dead, spiritually, No. there's another dead to die if he didn't receive the New Life which Christ offered while he lived.

Re: Created In God's Image And Likeness by analice107: 10:47am On Sep 29, 2017
Cc: @Adepeters2027

To understand what being renewed in Spirit means, we must first understand how we got to that state.


And this will also answers the Op.

Who are you? (Man).

Why are you created a man instead of a flower or an insect?

The Bible tells us that we are created in Gods image.

Question: What is the image of God?

Answer: The dictionary has told us that an image is an solid object, a statue, a figure of a man or animal we can see. And, Since we live in a material world, everything around us must be seen and felt, so we relate to these objects, for this is how we understand our world.

Hence; when we hear 'Image of God', the first thing flashing through our minds is a figure with a head, a body with hands, legs and all. But, is that what it is? No.

What then is the God?

Only one person has seen God so only him can tell us how God looks like, Jesus Christ (The God in human body).

John:6:46
No man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.

And, the one who has seen the father said...

John:4:24
God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

So, we see that God is Spirit yeah?

Now, who or what is a Spirit?

@Gracelilian and Adepeters2027
What or who is a Spirit?
The Spirit is immortal: Meaning it lives for ever.
The Spirit is Invincible: Meaning it's indestructible.
The Spirit is Invisible: Meaning it can not be seen with physical eyes.
If God is a Spirit, then what is the image of God?
Immortality, invincibility, and invisibility.
If God created man in his image, who then is man?

@Adapeters2027.

So, if God created man in His Image, then it must necessarily mean that, man is primarily a spirit. He must then be immortal, invincible and invisible.

But, i can see and touch you.

Yes, you can.

Why?

because, although, a Spirit, I was created to live and function in a material realm called earth, Hence, I need an earthy component to enable me function in this realm. I needed flesh, a body, taken from this realm.

Genesis:2:7
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

The Lump of clay was never useful until God took the Spirit he had created and put in the lump of clay, the spirit activated the clay, and it became alive.

It could move, function and relate to and with his environment.

But, he had work to do. He was mandated to dominate, rule and take charge of his domain.

But, how could he do that without consciousness?

Now comes, the Likeness of God. God's creative abilities embedded in us.

Soul, Mind, emotions is our Consciousnesses.

The ability to relate, recognise, name things, recreate like God.

@AdePeters2027, Gracelilian.

Aside from administrating the earth, God created Man to have fellowship with us.

Most people think Fellowship is going to church, raising our hands to sing songs of praise to God.

Fellowship is very very deep. it transcends human comprehension. Anyone who understand what fellowshipping with God means, will understand what sex between two people means.

When we are told not to have Sex with someone who is not our spouses, we don't understand what happens in the spirit realm when our souls and spirits merges and becomes one. This is fellowship and few understand it.


And, this is why God created man, to have fellowship with him.

But...

Sin came in between and the fellowship got broken.

How did this happen?

T.B.C.

@Gracelilian.
Since God is a spirit, fellowshipping with Him must be done in Spirit right? Yes. that's why he also created man a spirit first before flesh.

The Spiritual Component of Man was what fellowshipped with God, but when man rebelled and declared independence from God, there was disengagement, a disconnection between them. The fellowship ceased. Man could no longer access God, that's becos, Man was never meant to go to God, God always came to man.

Why was there a disconnection?
because the part of Man which connects with God died as a result of Sin.


Sin, is an incurable decease of the Spirit. It Kills the Spirit just like Cancer kills the body.

Man died. Separated from his God, his life source, his essence.
