  1. Made In His ImageGenesis 1:26-31 Grace Community Church 2013

  2. Genesis 1:26 26 Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

  3. Genesis 1:27 27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. • What does it mean? • Why does it matter? • How do we get it back?

  4. What does it mean? 27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. Represent & Reflect God

  5. Why does Genesis 1:27 matter? • What makes human rights “right”? • What makes another’s life valuable? • What makes your life valuable?

  6. Extreme: Peter Singer’s Functionalism “Human babies are not born self-aware, or capable of grasping that they exist over time. They are not persons”; therefore, “the life of a newborn is of less value than the life of a pig, a dog, or a chimpanzee.” Peter Singer, Professor of Bio-Ethics at Princeton University

  7. Confused: Joe College’s Conflict “As a politician, he will cry out that war is a waste of life, and then, as a philosopher, that all life is waste of time. A Russian pessimist will denounce a policeman for killing a peasant, and then prove by the highest philosophical principles that the peasant ought to have killed himself. . . . The man of this school goes first to a political meeting, where he complains that savages are treated as if they were beasts; then he takes his hat and umbrella and goes on to a scientific meeting, where he proves that they practically are beasts.” GK Chesterton - Orthodoxy

  8. Religious: Kathy Christian’s Hypocrisy James 3:7-9 7For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by mankind, 8 but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God.

  9. 2 Corinthians 5:14-16 14For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died; 15 and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised. 16 From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard him thus no longer.

  10. 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. Colossians 1:15-16 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him.
