There is an inescapable consequence to the fact that human beings bear the image of God: There is nothing God values more than human beings. Bearing Gods image is an extraordinary privilege and brings with it extraordinary worth. Jesus asked, What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world but forfeits his soul? If you were to accumulate the wealth of Bill Gates and add to it the wealth of Solomon, you would barely be scratching the surface of the value of a soul, of a person. Wealth will fade. It will rust and decay and be lost. People are eternal. When all of that wealth is gone, the soul will live on. God says there is nothing in all creation that he values more than human beings. And if this is true, there can be nothing more abhorrent to God than the desecration of human beings. There is nothing that displays greater spite toward God than destroying what he considers most significant. As man rejects being made in Gods image, there necessarily follows a culture of death and desecration.
