THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON MAY 4: MAN MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD.--Gen, 1:26-28; 2: 7-9; Eph. 4: 20-24. GOLDEN TEXT.--"God created man in his own image." Gen. 1:27. TIME--Not known. PLACE--Garden of Eden. EXPOSITION.--I. The Creation of Man, 26-28. "Let US make" is full of meaning. In itewe have the plurality of Persons of \the Godhedd suggested in the very first chapter of the Bible (cf. 3: 22; 11:7; Isa. | 6:8). This plurality is also indicated by the name of God, which is a plural noun, Indeed, the very 'passage of which Unitar- ians and Jews make so much in arguing against the Trinity (Deut. 6:4) literally | translated would be "Hear, O Israel, the |Lord our GODS is one Lord." The plural- ity of Persons in the Godhead comes out in this very verse. Man was to be made in the image of the Godhead. This image and likeness referred rather to intellectual and moral likeness than to physical like- ness (Col. 3: 10; Eph, 4:24; Jno. 4:24). But God does manifest Himself in a material form (Phil. 2:6; Ex. 24; 9, 10; Isa. | 6:1-4), end this form is seemingly in some respects like the human form. A peculiar |dignity and sucredness attaches to man be- cause he is made in the likeness of God |(Gen, 9:6). Though this image has been blurred and marred by sin, it has not been obliterated (Jas. 3:0). 'This image und like- ness was perfectly realized in the perfect |Man, the typical Man, the ideal Man, 'the Bon of Man," Jesus' Christ (2 Cor. 4:4; Col. 1; 15; Heb. 1:3). This glorious image is completely restored in regeneration and what follows it (Eph. 4:23, 24; Col. 3: 10; 1 Jno, 3:2), God appointed man to have | dominion over every created thing on earth | (ef. Ps, 8: 4-81, The incoming of sin has interfered in u miewsure with this perfect dominion of man over the animal creation, but it will be restored in the regeneration and restitution of all things (Iss. 11: 6; | 65; 25; Rom, 8: 21, R.V.!. But man re- | tains even now a measure of his dominion over nuture (Jas. 3:71. God "formed man | out of the dust of the ground" and breathed | into him Hix own breath (or Spirit). From | this union of body and spirit man became a living soul (2:7). Mun is allied by bis phfsiewl origin to lower outure, but by his | spiritual origin be is allied more directly | to God. The divine origin of marriage is | seen in that He crested man "mule and | Hfemule" (cf. chep. 2:24). The man is not a complete man without the woman, Poly. gamy and divorce are gross monstrosities ac cording to the Bible account of man's cre: | ation (ef, Mal, 2:14, 15). The history of | the human race begins with God's bless 8); it has continued with God's 'Use only three level .tea- - spoonfuls for five cups ~ REDROSE .
