You misunderstand. God is triune in nature. The lost have only their flesh and their soul, which is why they are so susceptible to do evil. If you are born again, a new creation, you become triune with body, soul, and a new spirit person. Even then, though, it can be tricky for Christians if they don't understand the Book of Romans. Christians have the option of either living by their new spirit person, which is always obedient to the Holy Spirit, or living by their flesh which will make them wretched and struggling in sin. So only born again believers are actually made in God's image. Adam and Eve were triune until the fall. |

That answers everything about the 'god issues'. God, or Source, of the Great Creator can't be fathomed...period. |

The guy up there is himself ...a A-hole ? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 45234839 All our lives we've heard that we're "made in the image of God." It's a nice thought, and probably one we've clung to when we need a reminder of our own value. But have you ever stopped to think about what it really means? "Made in the image of God" is an audacious claim and used by the spanish inquisition too and the greedy pedophiles. Discuss assh*oles... If the old testament is to be believed god is much worse than just an asshole. He’s a sadistic asshole at best. (declaimer) I don’t believe that that god really exists. :) |
