In the Image of God is a sermon teaching us that we live in an age when life is devalued. Murder is rampant in our society today which includes the taking of life from our fellow man, the unborn, and newborn. We’ve lost the concept of the value of life.
When God spoke, “let us make man in our image” He created man as a trinity just like himself. We consist of spirit, mind, and body. God is all about life not death. Life is a gift from God and we have no right to remove God’s gift of life. There is a penalty for the taking of life, the image of God.
Satan is the father of murder. When we take life, we do the work of Satan. We need to get back to valuing life. Jesus said to “love thy neighbor as thyself.” Hear this sermon to learn more about being made in the image of God.
In the Image of God sermon starts with verses from Genesis 1:26-31:
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.
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
