What does the Bible mean?
Gen 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, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
The image and likeness
God created humans to function, live, and act like him in the earth. He gave us his character, his way of thinking, and his righteousness. We were created rule and reign over all the earth and everything in it. God created us some his attributes and authority. We were created to function on earth like heaven under God's leadership to be in constant communication with him. This is my humble onion of Gen 1:26-27.
