Not likeness in the physical look but in the spiritual. Whether God is either black or white no one knows because God is a spirit (John 4:24). But we see the personality of God in Christ Jesus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>God created Adam in His image, to be the father of the race of people God wants to see. The Lord put into Adam the ability to procreate and dominate the world and till now God has never for once withdrawn that ability from man. When God created Adam, he had the mind of Christ, he knew no other mind apart from that. We understood that God didn\u2019t create a robot. He created man that can reason and take responsibilities for their actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Adam named the animals, God saw no need for correction, he named them perfectly as God would do. How did I know? During that time Adam was sinless which implies that he had a perfect relationship with God so that he could reason as God would do. God created Adam to make choices. After everything, Adam fell and corruption entered the work. Sin corrupted the gene of God in Adam . Therefore the reason for God to start the work of bring the man He created back to Himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/en.m.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mind\">Every man<\/a> has a mind he was born with naturally and it followed the path of Adam, rebelling against God. God gave us Christ that we might posses this mind once again and live according to His desire. God gave it to <a href=\"https:\/\/biblequizpro.com\/user\/blog\/is-the-spirit-of-christ-the-holy-spirit\/\">believers in Christ. <\/a>Which means, we have been empowered by God from birth (in Christ) to fulfill His mind or to have the mind of Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Attributes of such mind<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Humility <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>And being found in human form, he humbled himself by&nbsp;becoming obedient to the point of death,&nbsp;even death on a cross<\/p><cite>Philippians 2:8<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Desires God&#8217;s will<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><sup>&nbsp;<\/sup>saying,&nbsp;\u201cFather, if you are willing, remove&nbsp;this cup from me.&nbsp;Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.\u201d<\/p><cite>Luke 22:42<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Devotion to God<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>And he said to them,&nbsp;\u201cWhy were you looking for me?
