Wow your Lost, heb 1 3 is speaking of the image of God is it not ? Does God have different images now ? Do you believe that ?
Let's look at the text and not the twisted understanding of the text which you embrace from your "source":
<blockquote>Hebrews 1:2-3 (KJV) "Hath in these last days spoken unto us by [his] Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of [his] glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;"</blockquote>
1. The CONTEXT of this passage in regard to "image" is that of God Himself. The writer is confessing and declaring that Jesus Christ, was the incarnate Son of God for He <-- was the visible, express (identical) image of God. The God-man IS God and thus is the very "image" of God. This "image" was innate, not created, not inherited, etc.
2. The CONTEXT includes absolutely nothing about the "imago dei" which man is created with, which is a totally different thing. For, man was
created "in His image, after His own likeness", i.e., God's
communicable attributes were given to man vs. the Son who innately possesses both
communicable and
incommunicable attributes because He is GOD.
3. IF you are going to insist that the "image" spoken of in this passage (Heb 1:3) is the SAME image that man was originally created with, lost in the Fall, and is restored in regeneration, then you are guilty of even more heresy by making man deity, falling out of deity, and having his deity restored by another equal deity.
You just keep digging the hole deeper and deeper and then jumping into it without any forethought whatsoever. This is what happens when a person fails to THINK for himself because he binds himself to some tiny group of dissenters who railed against all of Christendom and asserting their own distorted, indefensible and unbiblical views about things.
