Bodies Made in Gods Image

Mar 8, 2022    Rev. Dr. John Kleinig

People don’t know how to regard their bodies and what to do with them, even though they imagine that their bodies belong to them and they can do what they like with them.
They overvalue them and undervalue them.
They idolize an ideal body and yet they are dissatisfied with their actual bodies.
They abuse their bodies and work hard at improving them.
They think that they are really nothing more than their bodies and also actually dissociate themselves from them.
Yet our bodies do not belong to us but to God who has made them and has decided what they are for. He not only gives us our bodies but creates them in his image to represent him visibly here on earth.
