It's amazing what we mere mortals are capable of, isn't it?

We were created in God's image. There's nothing mere about us, unless we don't try.

Yes, we were created in God's image. We can't believe just what we choose to believe and leave ANY of His Word unattended. However, many exercise their free will and lean unto their own understanding in certain areas.

WITHOUT HIM, we are mere - left to our own understanding. It's only under His covering by believing His Word and, thus, following and standing firm in His Truth can we claim His likeness. If we oppose Him we can't be like Him. However, when one gets to know their Savior through a personal relationship, they never want to oppose Him. Because you know that you know that you know.
