In His Image - William Jennings Bryan - Bog

In His Image is a Christian non-fiction book written by William Jennings Bryan, a prominent lawyer and politician in the early 20th century. The book explores the biblical concept of God creating humans in his own image and likeness, and what that means for humanity's relationship with God and with each other.Bryan argues that being made in God's image means that humans have a special dignity and value, and that this should inform our ethics and behavior. He also discusses the implications of this idea for topics such as the nature of sin, the role of government, and the importance of education.Throughout the book, Bryan draws on his extensive knowledge of the Bible and Christian theology to provide a thoughtful and persuasive argument for why the concept of being made in God's image is so important. He also includes personal anecdotes and examples to illustrate his points and make the book accessible to readers of all backgrounds.Overall, In His Image is a thought-provoking and inspiring book that challenges readers to consider what it means to be human and how we can best live out our God-given purpose.1922. William Jennings Bryan, gifted speaker, lawyer, three-time presidential candidate, and devout Protestant writes in the Preface that: In these lectures I have had in mind two thoughts, first, the confirming of the faith of men and women, especially the young, in a Creator, all-powerful, all-wise, and all-loving, in a Bible, as the very Word of a Living God and in Christ as Son of God and Savior of the world; second, the applying of the principles of our religion to every problem in life. My purpose is to prove not only the fact of God, but the need of God, the fact of the Bible and the need of the Bible, and the fact of Christ and the need of a Savior.
