Pillar (2): The Depravity of Man:
1. In the beginning God created man in His image after His likeness. Gen. 1:26, 27.
2. The Image of God is always God Himself in the in the person.
a. Jesus was the image of the invisible God. (Col. 1:15; 2 Cor. 4:4).
b. God was in the body of Christ. (2Cor. 5:19; Col. 2:9).
3. Thus man who was created with God – the Divine Nature – in him, was created sinfree. (Ps. 25:8; Eccl. 7:29); Col. 3:10.
4. The likeness that God created man in was like His person, having a body form like the Father and Son.
(Gen. 1:26; Dan. 7:9, 13; Rev. 1:13-16).
5. Man was created to glorify God which is to exalt Him to be God alone. (Isa. 43:1, 7; Ps. 29:2; Ps. 86:9, 10).
6. When man fell into sin, it was over claiming that there were Gods with God as Lucifer claimed in thebeginning of his rebellion. (Isa. 14:12-14; Gen. 3:1-6).
7. This sin however caused man to lose the divine nature or image of God from within him, he became vacuous or emptied of God. This is the beginning of the Depravity of man. (Eph. 2:12; Rom. 1:28;
