  • One of the most foundational aspects of a faithful Christian ethic is the truth that we are made in the image of God. In this message, Dr. Stephen Nichols explores what it means for men and women to be made in God’s image and considers how this truth is one of the primary starting points for approaching all ethical questions.

    For all the panels I've watched with Dr. Nichols, this is the first sermon of his I've listened to. Phenomenal. Such a blessing to live in a time of so many great expositors and preachers, and how easy it is to find them and listen.

    All of Christendom is currently in dire need of comprehending what this vital message expounds. Dr. Nichols does a stellar job of taking the truths of Genesis and the account of human origin and lifting them up into a shining light, bringing greater clarity to who/what God is, and who/what we are. Hence, what our humble response should be. Thank you once again Ligonier Ministries for your profoundly important and inculcating work.

    Him talking about brutality reminds me of the themes C.S Lewis brought out in his books. That when characters sinned of fell they became beastly. The talking animals could no longer talk and became dull creatures.

    Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
    Matthew 11:28 KJV
    Jesus lives
    Jesus Christ is Lord
    For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
    Romans 3:23 KJV
    Jesus loves you repent
    You're a sinner in need of a Savior
    That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
    For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
    Romans 10:9-10 KJV

    We all need to get a lot deeper into this issue, he went to the issue of Christ is the image of God, although I did not hear the connection of genesis 1:26 Let us make man in the image of God, and that’s what early genesis is all about, it’s God setting up a way that we come to know him,creation is not about God popping everything into existence it’s about God fulfilling his “aion” purpose. Ephesians 3:11. God raising us Out of animal life, or as we say the flesh to live a life According toThe Spirit in Christ,who is the image of God.

    It's a poor exegesis to pull the application of "Private Property" from this text. I'm personally in favor of this principle, but it's important to understand that it's derived through common grace by John Locke (the Father of Liberalism) and not scripture.

    The only way mankind can be in the image of God is through his Son Jesus Christ. Otherwise mankind are a mom and dad creation. The first man and woman where in God's immage (Adam and Eve) after that, mankind are a mom and dad creation. We are gods we know right from wrong ,good from evil, we can create and destroy.
    Romans 8:29] For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
    [30] Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
    [31] What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
    [32] He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
    Isaiah 41:21] Produce your cause, saith the LORD; bring forth your strong reasons, saith the King of Jacob.
    [22] Let them bring them forth, and shew us what shall happen: let them shew the former things, what they be, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come.
    [23] Shew the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods: yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together.
    [24] Behold, ye are of nothing, and your work of nought: an abomination is he that chooseth you.
    [25] I have raised up one from the north, and he shall come: from the rising of the sun shall he call upon my name: and he shall come upon princes as upon morter, and as the potter treadeth clay.
    [26] Who hath declared from the beginning, that we may know? and beforetime, that we may say, He is righteous? yea, there is none that sheweth, yea, there is none that declareth, yea, there is none that heareth your words.
    John 10:34] Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
    [35] If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
    [36] Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?

    There is only ONE Gospel: The Gospel of Reconciliation.
    Jesus Christ came into THEIR kingdom to reconcile fallen angels unto Himself.
    We are the fallen angels kept in DNA chains of darkness.
    If you do not confess being a fallen angel in Satan's kingdom, then you are an unbeliever.
    Unbeliever = those that claim to be made in the image of God.
