Existence of the image of God by individual is conceptually simple. To facilitate simplicity, an illustration conveying

the duplicate forms of God's Image inside humanity by individual in “an orange to orange” pretext is included below as Figure 1.

                  

The Concceptual Understanding of the New Covenant Christian Image of God Contrasted with the Concept of the Image of God Refered to in Genesis through a Oranges to Orange Analogy

.


                 The illustration consists of a picture of three objects;

  1. an orange citrus fruit consisting of an orange hue in color,

  2. an orange citrus fruit consisting of a golden hue in color,

  3. an non editable item which posses an orange color.

                 Analogously, the illustration represents the the Christian Image of God in essence in Jesus Christ as the Last Adam as being metaphorically illustrated in terms of possessing the quality of being a citrus fruit called an orange. The Image of God noted in Genesis which exists in complete accordance soteriologicaly within Christianity and as it exists within the world at large as part of the actualized reality as a casual consequence of God's creationist design (Genesis 1:27) as is analogized in the above illustration as possessing the quality of refracting light in a hue of the visible spectrum of light known as “orange”. The physical male endowed Genesis Image of God is likened by to this color “orange”.

                Thus it follows in the illustration that object 1.), an orange citrus fruit consisting of an orange hue in color relates to that of a Christian Man who posses the Image (*essence of Christ*) of God in his vessels reception of the Holy Spirit upon his person through Jesus Christ and who in addition as being born unto the word as a person of the male gender, also possess the Image of God physically upon his person in accordance with Genesis 1:27. Object 2.), an orange citrus fruit consisting of a golden hue in color, correlates to a Christian Woman who likewise posses the Image of Christ Jesus in her vessels reception of the Holy Spirit upon her person through Jesus Christ, but she does not possess physically in her gender the Image of God defined by Genesis 1:27 being the compliment form of the Image of Man in her feminine anatomical composition and appearance. Neither is the citrus “orange” in color, but is golden. Finally, object 3.), a non editable item which posses an orange color, correlates to the person of a non-Christian Man who does not posses the Image of God in the essence of Jesus Christ spiritually, but he being a man does possess the Image of God physically upon his person in accordance with Genesis 1:27.
