“Let us make man in our own image.” How can we even begin to understand all that those simple words contain? We, as humans, are made in the image of God! What are the implications of such a reality? If we are made in God’s image, what does that say about us? What does that say about Him? What does it say about our uniqueness? What does it say about our purpose?
God did not utter those words about anything else that He created. Mankind alone is exclusively made in His image. We know from the Scriptures that even the heavenly beings, like angels, are not made in God’s image. This truth is so incredible, so unfathomable, and so monumental that it demands further investigation. We MUST look into this to understand the depths of its meaning for us. We must strive to learn all that we can about why the One True God chose to create us uniquely in His image. The more we contemplate this, the deeper we will understand why Jesus Christ died on the cross exclusively for our redemption. Humanity is precious to God for many reasons, not the least of which is that we are uniquely created in His own image.
