We humans are made in God's image. Genesis 1:27 says, "And God proceeded to create the man in his image, in God's image he created him, male and female he created them." Being made in God's image does not mean that we were made to look like him because he is a spirit person, John 4:24 says, " God is a spirit." When he created us in his image it means that he created us with his qualities, and the ability to use them.

genetic likeness.
Yes, Christians believe that man is made in the image and likeness of God (Gen 1:27). However this does not mean that humans share the divinity, perfection, glory, or perfection of the Creator. The first man and woman were made in the image and likeness of God. But they rebelled and were cut off from their relationship with God. Like a branch cut off from a tree man kind has slowly 'withered' to what we are today. I think today were are far from the original man and woman.
