What is the agreement that god made with man?

In Christianity, the New Covenant is believed to have been established through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.


Did God make man in his image or did man make God in his image?

Clearly the standard answer from the Bible and most other historical and literary sources is that God made man in His image. However the wording of the question, and the fact that the author failed to capitalize "god" though it was used as a name, indicates that this person most likely disagrees with this answer and is instead raising a philosophical question. In other words, is God real, or did we make him up? (the questioner is clearly interested in the existence of the monotheistic God of Christianity, Judaism, or Islam, etc..., as the question refers to "god" in the singular and uses a familiar biblical phrase) It certainly sounds like a reasonable hypothesis to say that humans could have made up a god to suit their needs; Needs for security, purpose, love, immortality. Of course most people throughout history and today, both educated and not so, have concluded that this hypothesis is incorrect. One cannot say this with scientific certainty, but one also cannot support this hypothesis with scientific certainty. In the end this question has been argued in one form or another for most of human history. A wiki answer will hardly be capable of touching on more than a small sliver of the evidence, which would not do justice to the question. Good luck in your search.


What is the Greek meaning of image of God or likeness of God?

God uses figures of speech throughout the bible to call attenention to what is important. If the ground was dry you could say 'the ground is dry' which would be fine. If you wanted to call attention to the sentence you would say 'the ground is thirsty'. This is a figure of speech. An image is representation of something greater (i.e. a picture of the rocky mountains is a represenation of something greater) and is used as a figure of speech. John 4:24 says 'God is spirit'. The 'image' of God is spirit. In the begining God formed man's body out of the dust of the earth. He formed our body because the earth was already created. He made man a soul, which is breath life, because a soul was already created (Gen 1:21). He created them in His image, which is spirit. When the bible says 'God created man and woman in His image' He means He created man and woman to have a spirit, which is the image of God. I encourage you to read Genisis chapter 1 and see for yourself the defitnitions of formed, made, and created.


Why did god invent men first?

Depending on who you ask, you might get different interpretations. A man might say: Because men are more important, God made them first. A woman might say: Man was a prototype; the woman was the improved model.

Is the Great Barrier Reef man made or God made?

The Great Barrier Reef is a giant coral reef. It is basically a large collection of aragonite structures produced by living organisms. In a sense, it is neither man made nor God made. (If you are a creationist, and believe that God created all the creatures of the earth, then you could say that the Great Barrier Reef was indirectly made by God or a byproduct of Gods creation).
