What Does It Mean to Be Made in God's Image? Genesis 1:26

B1L6 What does it really mean to be made in God's image? Genesis 1:26 holds a deeper answer than most people realize — and it changes everything about how you see yourself. ✝️ In this verse-by-verse study of Genesis 1:26-27, we explore the profound truth that man was created as a three-part being — body, soul, and spirit — reflecting the very nature of the triune God. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 5:23 and Hebrews 4:12, this teaching shows how Scripture itself divides soul from spirit, and why that distinction matters for understanding who you really are. 📖 Key Topics Covered: • What "created in the image of God" actually means — Genesis 1:26 • Why man is body, soul, AND spirit — 1 Thessalonians 5:23 • How the Word of God divides soul from spirit — Hebrews 4:12 • The soul defined: mind, will, and emotion as invisible entities • How God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit each have mind, will, and emotion • Why God gave man a will — and what He expects in return • Adam's perfection at creation and his potential for immortality • Why both male and female were contained in Adam — Genesis 1:27 & 5:2 • How Romans 5:12 explains why Adam — not Eve — brought sin into the world 🔑 Genesis 1:26 image of God explained, body soul and spirit Bible, 1 Thessalonians 5:23 meaning, Hebrews 4:12 dividing soul and spirit, trichotomy vs dichotomy Bible, Adam created in God's image, Romans 5:12 one man sin entered, male and female created Genesis 5:2.
