What is an image? It is a likeness of what is real or true. Man is created in the likeness of God. This surely makes any member of the human race an amazing created being. This was God's intention for all people; that they be made like their Creator God. This striking information is first revealed in Genesis chapter 1 verses 26 and 27. God decreed that man was to be made in the image of God the Father; God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Mankind was created to have dominion over all of God's creation. God created men and women in the image of God.
