CHAPTER

The Essence of Being God's Image: A Physical Representation

This chapter challenges the common perception of being made in God's image as related to intellectual capabilities, instead emphasizing the physicality and embodiment as the essence. It explores the idea that humans, irrespective of abilities, are concrete representations of God, drawing parallels with ancient statues of authority. The discussion touches on the impact of sin on the image of God, affirming the unchanging status of being God's image bearers even in the midst of estrangement and emphasizing our identity as received from God.
