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.
Genesis 1:26-27

Yes I believe that G-d man made in his image...The question I think is how did G-d make man in his image?
Genesis 1:28
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
Man with dominion.
Would it not stand to reason that if G-d made man in his image then that means that he created little creators?
And if so then how did G-d create?
And G-d said........
I believe that when G-d brought things before Adam to see what he would call them he was teaching Adam how to be a creator.

Yes.
I would encourage any man who is willing to look at this openly to read "Wild at Heart" and any woman "Captivating"; I think they are by John Eldrigde??. These books have given me the most insight as to how we are created in the image of God.

Based on my own personal acceptance of the validity and infallibility of the scriptures, I would have to say yes, I do believe that He created us in his image, his likeness. Like Him we are not just physical creatures but are also spiritual creatures as He is.

In spirit, perhaps as in the sense or essence of God. I think the passage is misinterpreted quite often, taken far to literally. In flesh and form, absolutely not, that is to bring God down to the level of mankind, which is an impossibility.

Yes the image is to be Christ-like to all we meet and show love and forgiveness = "in the image of God." In his shadow. While we are alive we are "Destined" to continue his work of love and forgiveness and help to others.
