# "Then the Lord God said, �Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil; and now, lest he stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever," (Gen. 3:22, NASB).
When God created the first human He said; "Let US make man in our own image".
Now, some would suggest that the word US refers to angels but nowhere can we find in the Holy Book that angels created anything. Angels have no part in any creation. Here is a verse...Isaiah 44:24, "Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, and the one who formed you from the womb, �I, the Lord, am the maker of all things, Stretching out the heavens by Myself, And spreading out the earth all alone."
God made all things alone. Therefore, the "us" in "Let Us make man in our image" cannot be the angels. Furthermore, people are not created in the image of angels, but of God.
rcruman...let me ask you this question---kinsa man na ang US diha sa bersikulo? kinsa man na sila nga gi ka istorya sa Ginoo?

nice question, and let us allow bible to answer.
it follows that when GOD/ELOHIM said LET US MAKE MAN ACCORDING TO OUR IMAGE AND LIKENESS it follows that they(GOD/ELOHIM) have the same IMAGE and LIKENESS, and that PERSON is:
4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
2 Corinthians 4:4
and before the earth was made Christ was with GOD:
22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.
25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
Proverbs 8:22-31
and Jesus Christ said:
9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
John 14:9-12
Peace!
