Yes, Psalm 8. Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels and crowned him with glory and honor. Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet.
To me this answers all questions regarding, "what is man".
God came here became one of us, joined us eternally to Himself as part of Himself. As of yet not all things have been put under our feet, as of yet we do not have dominion over all the works of His hands, yet, in His own good time, it would appear that mankind has an astounding future.
God came here became one of us, joined us eternally to Himself as part of Himself.
The Bible states...
Genesis 1:26-27
26. Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
27. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
WE became like HIM, not the other way around.
We are NOT 'joined' to GOD, being a 'part' of HIM.
We are distinct entities.
HE is Creator: WE are creation. Not the same stuff.
