We are NOT the image of God
Read closely what God said:
▸ ± Ge 1:26 ¶ And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
▸ ± Ge 1:27 So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
He has a diminishing scope of what he accomplished:
- Let us make man in our image, after our likeness
- So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him;
- male and female created he them.
This is a prophetic riddle, not a poetic redundancy. One cannot solve the riddle until more information is known.
