MAN MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD

Man was made to worship God. God made man to worship Him. Man is a creation of God. The creation was made to worship Him. In the garden of Eden man was in complete union with God. There was no separation between man and God. All creation was one and there was no fear. It is this unity that God seeks with man. This is possible now in Christ Jesus. He broke the veil that separated man from God. Now it is possible to walk in unity. The union between man and God results in man having authority over all creation. A man completely united with God has an authority on earth like God. God gave Adam complete authority because He was made in the image of God. An image is a reflection of what is. Man made in the image of God is a reflection of God. This is the perfection with which man was made. Jesus came in the form of man to suffer and die for the sin of man. In Jesus now man is free from the sin that Adam committed. The sin that so controlled man born in sin is now broken. This is the good news of the gospel that all mankind must hear. The deliverance is near and it only takes a step to enter into the inheritance.
