What is the 'Image of God'? (w/ Dr. Carmen Joy Imes)

What this episode covers

A viewer asks:  “In Genesis 1:27, when it says we were "made in the image of God", What does it mean exactly? I hear people all the time say that it means we were made with the characteristics of God, but I grew and still believe It means we were made in the triune nature of God. We are body, soul, and spirit. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 refers to this when it says "May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul, and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ”.” ——— Here’s how you can submit your own questions to DiscipleDojo: https://youtu.be/_bEUVpTSWLs More from Carmen Imes:  Follow Carmen on Twitter: @carmenjoyimes  Carmen's blog: http://www.carmenjoyimes.blogspot.com  Being God's Image: Why Creation Still Matters at https://www.amazon.com/Being-Gods-Image-Creation-Matters-ebook/dp/B0BLD43TVC/ ***Disciple Dojo gifts (such as the shirt JM is wearing in this video!) are available over in our online store! - https://tinyurl.com/24ncuas2 ***Become a monthly Dojo Donor and help keep us going! - https://www.discipledojo.org/donate ***If you are an unmarried Christian looking for community, check out our Facebook group “The Grownup’s Table” over at www.facebook.com/groups/grownupstable ------ Go deeper at www.discipledojo.org Subscribe to the Disciple Dojo podcast for more in-depth teaching and discussions: SoundCloud - https://soundcloud.com/discipledojo Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/26BDZz70HmnT5eoD9BEKQ7 iTunes - https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/disciple-dojo/id1002934837 Amazon - https://tinyurl.com/uz8dbfet

Understanding the ten commandments can be a good place to reflect on, as they were one of Israel's first introductions to learning how to relate to God and live in His way. Jesus also references the commandments in his sermon on the mount saying, “...whoever does them [the commandments] will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 5:19) Looking forward to exploring these with you!
