Made in the image of God

@Jake966
You mean, made in the likeness of God, not in the image of God, right?

@Jake966 Which one?

@SandWitch Genesis 1:27 man was created in the image of God
SandWitch · 26-30, F
@Jake966
But God has no image because God is not of human descent, so therefore, Genesis 1:27 is being misquoted regardless of the source you read it from.

@SandWitch Jesus is God in flesh .

@Jake966
We all are God in flesh, not just Jesus. What you're not understanding is that God has no "image" nor does God have flesh. God can only extend likeness of Himself to those of us who possess flesh, but God cannot extend the image of Himself because God possesses no image. If He did possess image, we'd all look the same.

@SandWitch Jesus is God in flesh , God walked the garden with Adam in the evenings . The Trinity ; Father , Son , and Holly Spirit

@Jake966
Every person on earth is God in flesh. Who told you it was just Jesus?
Jake966 · 56-60, M
@SandWitch every person is made in the image of God , not god in flesh . Jesus said , “ I and the Father are one , if you have seen Me you have seen the Father

@Jake966
You have contradicted yourself. You said Jesus is God in flesh. And I said it just wasn't Jesus, it was all of us who are God in flesh. Then you contradicted yourself by saying:
every person is made in the image of God , not god in flesh .

You contradicted yourself because WE are no different than Jesus when Jesus walked this world as a man.

@SandWitch we are not god in flesh as in we are not equal to God , We are not like Jesus was , we looked the same , but Jesus was sinless , we aren’t

@Jake966
Jesus was not sinless! Who are you trying to kid?! Jesus was no different than any of us are during the time when he walked this world!
Jake966 · 56-60, M
@SandWitch then I guess you don’t know the Bible
SandWitch · 26-30, F
@Jake966
The Bible is actually irrelevant in this discussion, Jake. The Bible was written by mere mortal men who were sinners no different than the rest of us.
Jake966 · 56-60, M
@SandWitch The Bible is the inspired word of God
SandWitch · 26-30, F
@Jake966
No, the Bible was written from the inspired words of Jesus, not God. The First Testament of the Bible was written about 60 years after the death of Jesus.
Jake966 · 56-60, M
@SandWitch The Trinity ; God The Father , God The Son (Jesus) , and The Holly Spirit all the same
SandWitch · 26-30, F
@Jake966
If they're all the same, then why is it called The Trinity as if 3 separate parts?
