LET US MAKE MAN
It is not an exaggeration to say that these words, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness” define exactly what it means to be human. So much has been written in the disciplines of anthropology, psychology, and sociology that seek to answer the questions we have about our origin, our purpose, our identity, and our relationships as human beings. And yet, in Genesis 1-2, we have the Creator’s own words about who we are, why we’re here, and what we’re to be doing. As we look at the first account of the creation of Adam and Eve in Genesis 1:26-31 this Sunday (Genesis 2 is a second telling of the creation narrative from a different perspective), we’ll see that as God’s special and unique creation, each of us is stamped with his image, bound to his purpose, and should be overwhelmed by his goodness. I’ll see you in person at 7 George Street in Barrie or on Harvest Online.

It’s all in your head. You have the power to make things seem hard or easy or even amusing. The choice is yours.
- Seneca
As God’s special and unique creation, I am…
…stamped with his image (v. 26a, 27)
Humanity made in the image and likeness of God was (and is) the most important aspect of creation. In fact, we can think of every other aspect of creation as preparatory for the creation of humanity as the crowning climax.
- Ian J. Vaillancourt, The Dawning of Redemption
As image bearers, all people have the same inherent dignity—regardless of their age, sex, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status.
- Phillip Bethancourt, Exalting Jesus in Genesis
2 Corinthians 3:4-5, 18
…bound to his purpose (v. 26b, 28)
God says, “My purpose for you is to…"
(1) Rule in my place.
(2) Procreate as I have created.
(3) Represent me in the world.
2 Corinthians 5:19b-20a
2 Corinthians 5:21
…overwhelmed by his goodness (v. 29-31)
Psalm 8:4
