DAVEH:  That seems contrary to what the Lord says in Gen 3:22......
 
...Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil:....
 
......Logically, it was AFTER the fall that A&E took on the image of God if  vs 22 means what it says.  Do you disagree? 
 
vince: I disagree. A&E took on one attribute of God, the knowledge of good and evil. It does not logically follow that this one attribute makes them in the image of God.
 
vince: Gen 1:27 says God made them in His image at the time of creation, before they sinned. If they changed at all, then it must have been a change FROM God's image.
 
vince: Scripture tells us that we are becoming renewed in the image of our creator. That wouldn't be necessary if we were in His image now. [Col 3:10 (RSV) "and have put on the new nature, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator."]
