Mankind has been uniquely created to reflect the character of God. Today, R.C. Sproul presents the theological basis behind the Bible’s ethical imperative to love our neighbor as ourselves.
The Bible says that man, of all of the creatures, was uniquely created in God’s image. That we alone have a profound capacity and ability to reflect and to mirror to the rest of creation the very character of God. We have an origin in the divine purpose of God. We have a destiny in eternal glory that the Father has prepared for us from the foundation of the world. Therefore, everything that happens between creation and consummation matters. It matters how we treat white people and black people, Jewish people, any kind of people, because they’re created in the image of God and they bear that image even in their sinfulness. We are called to love them as we love ourselves.
