The Evangelical Preacher Genesis 1:26-27 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea… I. LET US INQUIRE, IN WHAT DID THE DIVINE IMAGE CONSIST? 1. In immortality. 2. Intelligence. 3. Righteousness. 4. Blessedness. II. NOTICE THE PAINFUL TRUTH THAT THE DIVINE IMAGE HAS BEEN DEFACED IS MAN. 1. This is seen in the body of man. Disease; death. 2. It is seen more painfully in his soul. God will not dwell in the heart which cherishes sin. III. THE PROVISION MADE FOR RESTORING THE DIVINE IMAGE TO MAN. Christ, the second Adam. (The Evangelical Preacher.) Parallel Verses KJV: And 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 fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. |
