In Genesis 1:27, we read that "God created man in his OWN Image", which I don't see as presenting any problem as it's still the self-same God in His Triunity that created man to bear His Image.
Then in Genesis 3:22 we read, "And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of US, to know good and evil". Here again, God brings in the Fullness of His Being, as created man stepped outside of God's Will & now able to discern between good & evil, & has further taken on another aspect of God. Man lost his innocence by his sinning against God.
The above verses reveal to us the triunity of God, but when we get to Genesis 11:7, we read: "Let US go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech." We can't be sure who went with God to do this work: was it Jesus as God's Word, or the angels or some Beings of Heaven, we don't know. Since it didn't involve the creation of someone or something to bear His Image, we could understand that others were involved at the Tower of Babel.
"SIX DAYS OF LABOR NOW ARE PAST"
"God saw every thing that He had made, and, behold, it was very good." Genesis 1:31
Six days of labor now are past;
Thou restest, Holy God;
And of Thy finished work has said,
That all is very good.
Charles Coffin 1736
And G-d saw every thing that He had made, and, behold, it was tov me'od (very good). And the erev and the boker were Yom Shishi (Day Six, the Sixth Day).
RSV
And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
RSVCE
And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
TLV
So God saw everything that He made, and behold it was very good. So there was evening and there was morning-the sixth day.
VOICE
Then God surveyed everything He had made, savoring its beauty and appreciating its goodness. Evening gave way to morning. That was day six. -- This one I like best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thankyou dear Heavenly Father for graciously hearing and delivering on this request also, in that name that is written that You placed above every name, the powerful name of your biological Son our risen Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Amen = so be it!
In verse 12, Paul speaks about our vision being limited & lacking clarity, as one from those early days looking at himself in an unrefined mirror. But the day will come, says Paul, when our vision & understanding will no longer be limited but clear as our understanding of all things will be made perfect or complete. When will that time be? This is where commentators may differ: suggestions of the complete Word of God given to us (we know more by it now than the early Church which only had the OT Scriptures); others have suggested that when we see Jesus or more likely when we're lifted up from this earthly limiting plane, into the heavenly, when all knowledge of all things will be ours: "then shall I know even as also I am known (by Jesus)."
Physically Cain came from Adam and Eve. Spiritually I John 3:12 Not as Cain who was of that wicked one...
Jesus said to the Scribes and Pharisees ye are of your father the devil ... From a scriptural standpoint if you are not born of God spiritually your father is the devil or Satan. When a person becomes born again he is born into God's family and God is his Father.
We are the Body of Christ
Following another Gospel is preaching another Jesus. Sorry but it's the truth. God Loves yous all and hopes for all to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth
