DAY 6



  1. Created animals inhabit the earth
  2. Created human beings



THEME: PEOPLE ARE THE APEX, THE CLIMAX OF CREATION


We are not a mistake


WHO IS "US" IN 1:27?
Creation emphasizes that there is only one God — monotheism (v 27)
But here is a hint that there is more to God than meets the eye
In his singularity there is some sort of plurality


"Trinity"


  1. The Father ultimate authority; decides there will be a creation
  2. The Son — agent, does work — Col 1:16; John 1:3
  3. The Holy Spirit completes, gives life

IMAGE OF GOD 

We were made like him 

We were made to reflect him to creation


APPLICATION # 1:   THE IMAGE OF GOD IS THE SOURCE OF ALL HUMAN DIGNITY

How does the world measure "dignity"?  
  • World measures dignity based on performance — its own values


APPLICATION # 2: RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CREATION AND OUR SPIRITUAL GROWTH


2 Cor. 3:18
18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate[a] the Lord’s glory,are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.


1 John 3:2  
2 Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears,[a] we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.
