Men and Women Created Equally

God created Men and women as equals

God created both men and women in His image to be His representatives on earth. Not men or women were created less in the image of God. Both are equal and equally important.

Both men and women have the responsibility to to live and act like God would have done and therefore we are His representatives. Together they are described as the crown of God’s creation. The Bible does not make one superior to the other. (Genesis 1:27, 2:18-23)

The Bible does give different roles to men and women, but they are equal in status. Men are to lead their families like Christ leads the church. The role of men is therefore to serve (like Christ), not to dominate. True equality between a man and woman in marriage compliments each other and leads to true unity.

Blessings, Victoria
