Revelation 22:1-3: No longer will there be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will worship him.
Re: Is God In Form Of Man Or Woman by Queenttoast01: 10:07am On May 09, 2020
In this passage above they used HIM, can we liken God's form and image to that of a man or woman?
Re: Is God In Form Of Man Or Woman by Queenttoast01: 10:11am On May 09, 2020
If you're knowledgeable of the word of God, pls come in and shed light.

“Then God said, ‘Let us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth…” (Genesis 1:26).

Man abi Woman image? Him or Her
Re: Is God In Form Of Man Or Woman by Queenttoast01: 10:19am On May 09, 2020
Still confused here pls.

Genesis 1:27: So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
Re: Is God In Form Of Man Or Woman by Queenttoast01: 10:20am On May 09, 2020
But God made Man and woman, Are they trying to put us aside?

Genesis 1:26-27: Then 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 birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
Re: Is God In Form Of Man Or Woman by Queenttoast01: 10:23am On May 09, 2020
Is it only Blood of Man or both man and woman?

Genesis 9:6: “Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image.

The image here wasn't able physic but attribute.

All other creatures are not intelligent, they were made to eat, drink, sleep and reproduce all based on instinct. But humans differ, we often think of how to improve in whatever we do.

As for the gender, the Bible clearly stated that God created one single male but later decided to make a female human to help the male! Genesis 2:18-24

Thanks! smiley

Genesis 1:26: Then 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 birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

What about this Verse? This clearly show that God himself is in one Genders image, my question is, is it male or female or only male?

Jesus is the one and only human who exhibited the attributes of God completely that's why observers could refer to him as

GOOD Luke 18:18-19

Son of God Matthew 16:16

The attributes are weaker {1Peter 3:7} in women that's why God doesn't reckon much with women unless one does what is noteworthy! smiley
Re: Is God In Form Of Man Or Woman by Queenttoast01: 10:44am On May 09, 2020
Hebrews 1:3: He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high

I think this is the attribute you're talking about

James 3:8-10: But no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.

Everyone is God's image, don't abuse your God's image and temple which is your body!
