January 18, 2009 – Imago Dei - Genesis 1:27; 9:5-6; Prov. 31:8-9; Matthew 22:37-40
Imago Dei is Latin phrase used by theologians meaning "The Image of God." As Genesis 1:27 says: "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them."
This concept of Imago Dei is an important one for us to understand for the concept possesses far reaching implications for a plethora of moral issues.
Today is Sanctity of Life Sunday, a day in which we recognize that all human life is sacred - rich and poor; short and tall; sick and healthy; born and unborn; red, brown, yellow, black, and white – and all human life is precious in His sight. For ALL are created in God’s image
And so we remember on this, Sanctity of Life Sunday that Imago Dei – the image of God borne by humanity - makes human life more than dignified, more than valuable, more that respectable - it makes human life sacred.
