In reference to, Genesis 2:7
GOD’S creation of man is astounding when we are able
fathom the significance of it all.
Let’s take a moment to analyze this extraordinary meaning of the “breath of life.”
“The LORD GOD formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the ~breath of life~ and man became a ~living being~ .
Living means ~spirit~
Being means ~soul~
So, GOD created us in HIS image and likeness with a spiritual soul, a mirrored reflection of GOD’S Image and likeness.
So, man, is a ~spiritual soul; moreover, GOD formed man as a duplicate of HIMSELF.
In essence of HIS SOUL, HIS reflection, HIS children with HIS precise genes, possibly his experiences, inheritors of his blessings and HIS kingdom and created in GOD’S exact image through HIS BREATH OF HIS LIFE.
We are GOD’S children, so we are children of the KING and are beneficiaries of the “CREATOR of EVERYTHING”
Also of interest, JESUS said that we are gods.
In Psalms 82:6-7 it says:
6. “I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.
7. “But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.”
“Like one of the princes?”
The Prince of peace possibly…?
JESUS?
This is only my opinion; however, could GOD desire for us to be so much alike that HE wanted us to experience everything the same, including physical experiences also…?
Prehaps GOD was parabolicly speaking in regards to our exactness in all things, in that HE died like a man as, we will die also.
So, again, a metaphor in reference to our likeness and exactness in ~all things~.not excluding physical death.
Just think about that for a moment….
We were created in HIS “image and LIKENESS.”
“THE PRINCE OF PEACE”
who died like a man as referenced above…
“But ye shall die like men, and fall like ~one of the princes.”~
John 16 :7-11
7. Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
8. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9. Of sin, because they believe not on me;
10. Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
11. Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.”
~He, the Prince was judged and Crucified ~
This analogy is my opinion only; however, it may be something to ponder…
