Just a heads up, the negative ETI want to spread a new psyop claiming they made humans so they can later say they are our Gods and that legally we would have to worship them.
As usual, they will try and try to convince everyone so let's stop this psyop in it's tracks. As long as you know how the magician's tricks work, they won't work.
God making us in his image means our Spirit. This body is like a car and is actually the opposite of God's image. Our Spirit deep down inside is perfect and that is the true self. Being "reborn" in Spirit just means realizing that you aren't the body but the Spirit. This leads to salvation since it's like coming out of the insanity of thinking you are just a body. That is the truth.
I get the feeling you're a gnostic. My personal opinion is where it says we were made us in his image it could also be by his design. I agree we are spiritual beings within this body
But He designed everything. So my thinking is what have we got that nothing else has..
"In his image" means that a perfect personality expression of God is duplicated into an independent Spirit but in a younger form. This way, we can look up to our elder "Father".
No I'm not gnostic. I don't believe in them.
You get the right feeling. It's the Manichean heresy which appeared alongside gnosticism. The human body is sacred and was made perfect by God. It is subject to corruption due to the fall, but just like our heart and soul, can be sanctified and joined to Christ.
