Imago Dei

Man is made in the image and likeness of God. Through God, man may begin to fully realize who he is. Man is made in God's image, not the other way around. The bodies we have are made in the likeness of the body that Christ was to assume. It is in that light that our bodies are made the way they are, male and female.

The intricacy and connection between male and female shine forth in their complementarity to one another. It is in seeing them both as reflective of God's design for man that we can more fully understand what it means to be male and female, both made in the image and likeness of God.
