You and everybody else were originally created, as part of mankind, to be image-bearers of God, made in His likeness. While society places value on people in many man-made ways, Christians should value people because of the way they were originally created. And because sin causes us to fall away from looking like God, we (believers, in Christ), should pursue holiness and seek to put God’s glory on display, living according to our created purpose as image-bearers of God. And we should love people enough to tell them their created purpose, explain how sin separates them from God and leads into great confusion, and how perfect reconciliation and redemption is found in Christ Jesus alone. And we should be extremely humbled in knowing that we can bear the image of God only by the grace extended to us undeservedly, by His hand, in Christ Jesus.
Thank You God!
