Today, we are looking at the concept of mankind being crowned with glory. Psalm 8:5 says, “You crowned him with glory and honor” this points to an essential glory in humans, an inherent glory resulting from their being created in God's image (Gen. 1:26-28)
Man is not crowned with God’s glory His greatness, His honor, His beauty, His power, and His light. We are not on the same plane as Almighty God. No, man was crowned with God’s authority and given the responsibility to steward the earth for Him. Unfortunately, in the Garden Adam and Eve forfeited their ‘crowned glory’ when they sinned which gave satan the legal right to rule the earth. But, Praise be to God through Jesus, the Last Adam, His shed blood - those who are in Christ, have been repositioned back to God’s original intent for mankind.
