WHAT IS MAN? Psalm 8: Part 3 The Dignity of Humanity in God's Plan “What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?” Psa. 8:4 This is one of the most profound questions in Scripture. Who is man? According to the Bible, human beings are neither accidents nor insignificant creatures. We were: - Created by God - Created in God's image - Given responsibility over creation - Made for fellowship with God Created for God's glory Gen. 1:26–28 But something went terribly wrong. - Sin entered the world. - Humanity's relationship with God was broken, and the dominion entrusted to mankind became distorted. Yet God's original purpose was not abandoned. And this is where Psalm 8 begins pointing us toward Christ. Key Lesson: - Sin damaged humanity, but it did not cancel God's purpose for humanity. - God's answer to humanity's failure was not to abandon mankind. - His answer was Jesus Christ. Rom. 5:18–19 #InGodsImageBlogs #Psalm8 #CreatedInHisImage #ImageOfGod #BibleStudy
