Image of God takes Created Image with Us
“Christ Jesus: who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death—even death on a cross!” (Philippians 2:6-8 NIV)
“The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.” (John 1:14)
“For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering.” (Romans 8:3)
“What is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him? You made him a little lower than the angels … Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels.” (Hebrews 2:6, 7, 9)
*: The last few posts were not planned to fit together. But not by my doing, they do fit together quite nicely!
