God’s Model.

We are not created in the image of God for nothing, but so that we fully look like God in every way.

We were ultimately created in the image of God to reign like Him and show every other creature how God is. In other words, we were made to be the physical expression of God.

Still, humans can be created in God’s image and still not be like God, because they have a choice. And that’s where the devil manipulates many men today; to choose outside of God.

[27] So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
[28] And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion.

Genesis 1:27-28 (KJV)

We can’t model or hope to look like someone we don’t know personally and relate with intimately.

We must be true follower of God and of the Holy Spirit’s leadings, not partially or selectively, but totally.
