In our current series, Restoring Foundations, we are discovering the biblical truth about 5 fundamental realities that affect every aspect of our lives. This week, we are looking at Reality #3, God Designed Gender, Sex, Marriage and Family.
God has wonderfully and immutably created each of us, whether male or female, to fulfill His nature and purpose. God is love and creating us in His image gives us the opportunity to be the physical representation of His love here on earth. In Ephesians 5:1-2 we are called God’s dear children and we are encouraged to walk in love even as Christ loved us and died for us.
Mankind is made in the image of God—you might say we are God copies. His plan for us to multiply, to be useful and productive is for His purpose as well as ours. As we live according to His design, we accomplish His purposes and find true fulfilment. Join us as we delve deeper into the Word and discover God’s perfect design for our lives.
'And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.' Genesis 1:26 KJV.
Walking in love,
Upstream Ministries
