I'm Only Human After All | Part 1

The essence of Humanity is under great scrutiny with many wanting to redefine it. Jesus was so wonderfully human and so uniquely divine. Every human being is God breathed, formed and created in His image. In Jesus, true humanity begins anew and reaches its zenith.

Through this series we present our biblical view of humanity created by God. To help us respect life, grow to be like Jesus and treat others with the dignity that pertains to their created image.

 Who is my equal?” asks the Holy One. Look up into the heavens.

 not a single one is missing. ISAIAH 40:25–28 (NLT)

 No one can measure the depths of his understanding.” ISAIAH 40:25–28 (NLT)
