God, tell me a story about…You

Mankind

“So God created mankind in His own image, in the image of God He created them; male and female He created them.”

Genesis 1:27

Read Genesis 1:26 – 2:25
Questions

1 – What does it mean to be created in the “image of God”?

2 – Why did God make us different from the other things He created? (verse 1:26 and 2:15)

3 – What are the some of the things you can do that a horse cannot do?

4 – When God looked back at every thing He had created, what did He say? (verse 31) Did God think He had made a mistake? What do you think God said after He created you?

5 – Are blue-eyed people better than brown-eyed people? Are tall people better than short people? Why not? (read verse Gen 1:27 and 1Sam 16:7 for help) We must remember that no matter what we look like, we are all of equal value.
