The human mind is the most restless and unruly aspect of human nature. Even after we have mastered the discipline of controlling our words, our thoughts often resist our will and rebel against God. The human mind is an intricate and complex entity. By granting us the freedom to think for ourselves, God took a significant risk. This capacity for independent thought is a divine privilege that distinguishes us from animals and robots.
Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all creatures that move along the ground.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. Genesis 1:26-27.
