@dailyfaithministry: Why Did God Say "Let Us Make Man in Our Image"? The Mystery of Genesis 1:26 For five days and half of the sixth, God spoke only in commands. Then He came to one creature and, for the first time, talked about Himself. Why did God say, let us make man in our image? In this Bible study from Daily Faith Ministry, we look closely at the mystery of Genesis 1:26. Every other living thing was made according to its kind. The human being was patterned after God. Who is the us? We test the main answers honestly: the royal we, the heavenly court of 1 Kings 22 and Isaiah 6, the ancient Jewish readings, and the early Christian reading that points to the Word and the Spirit. Then we turn to the word that matters even more: image. In Hebrew it is the word used for idols. You will hear about a statue found in Syria in 1979 that carries the same two words as Genesis, why ancient kings alone were called the image of a god, and how one phrase, male and female, gave that title to every human being. We follow the image through the fall, the flood, Psalm 115, and the golden statue of Daniel 3, to the sentence where Paul calls Jesus the image of the invisible God. It ends with a coin in the hand of Jesus, and a question about whose likeness is stamped on you. Your worth was sealed on you before you did a single thing. Topics: Genesis 1:26 explained, let us make man in our image, image of God, imago Dei, Trinity in Genesis, who is us in Genesis, Bible mysteries, Colossians 1:15. #Genesis #ImageOfGod #BibleStudy #BibleMysteries #DailyFaithMinistry
