Restoring the Image of God
nEphesians 5:25-27 Husbands, love your wives,
just as Christ loved
the church and gave himself up for her 26 to make her
holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any
other blemish,
but holy and blameless.
nColossians 3:9-10 Do not lie to each other,
since you have
taken off your old self with its practices
10 and
have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.
