In my view, you don't have to go to a dictionary or an encyclopedia or the unoriginal Greek to understand what image means...
I learned what image means back in grade school...
I've spent enough time in the bible to be completely convinced that God is a Trinity...The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit...We are made in God's image...We have a body, a soul and a spirit...God has a body, a soul and a (Holy) spirit...
We were made after God's kind...Not after a bird's or snake's kind...The bible is 'clear' on that...Birds were not made after a fish's kind...And cow's were not made after a flower's kind...The bible is clear on that...
There is no evolution outside of a species...I think God created the Platypuss just to make a mockery of science...
Just so you know, I did not go back to the original Hebrew to determine the correct translation of the word image. I did use the dictionary as an example of it's various meanings, but even that isn't necessary. The Bible, on it's own, demonstrates the use of the word "Image" in a variety of ways. It also demonstrates the use of the word "body" as not always pertaining to the physical.
The examples I posted to you were from the Bible, and were also very clear.
More so,I believe that God is a trinity. I also believe that Jesus is God, as is the Holy Spirit. My husband uses the analogy of water. It can be steam, liquid, or ice, but all are H20. I have always consider a soul, and our spirit to be the same thing. Which messes up the analogy of them as representing the trinity for me.
I do see your point if you are referring to Jesus, when he was on earth as God's body, the Holy spirit as God's power, and God as "Who He is". To be truthful, I'm not certain the trinity is something we can completely understand.
I also learned the meaning of the word "image" in it's most simple and basic use in grade school. But my education continued past that, and I learned that the word "image" could have other representation as well. It is like I said, it's not that you are wrong, you may not be! But, then again, you may be. I'm just encouraging you to consider that there are other Christians who love the Lord with all their heart, soul, strength and mind, but do see things a little different on matters not pertaining to salvation.
As for this last part.
(We were made after God's kind...Not after a bird's or snake's kind...The bible is 'clear' on that...Birds were not made after a fish's kind...And cow's were not made after a flower's kind...The bible is clear on that...)
We are in agreement.
