" The words Let us, our image, our likeness pronounce a mutual connection. Creation forms new life, but even more so formulates a relationship between the Creator and humanity. Yahweh shares and comes close by sharing his image and his likeness. This association or, as some would mistakenly say, “partnership,” does not lessen who he is. When God creates, he is never less than himself. He neither changes nor can face rivalry by interacting or sharing. He is beyond human thinking. The assumed thought that an earthly monarch who shares or associates with a weaker or lesser person would lose honor, self-essence, power, or status is incorrect. Quite the contrary, the divine graciously sharing of himself brings honor. God speaks his mind—who are we not to take notice and stand in awe? "
