God Formed Man
We were created by god. shaped and molded by the almighty Himself. When He formed us, He breathed into us and we became living beings. By His breath we are distinguished from every other thing He created. He breathed His essence into us. The breath of life is in us. Breath of God lives in us. At creation man had all the dominion and authority over everything God created. He was always in an uninterrupted contact with His creator and God.
Sin Deformed man
The fall of man was because of sin. Man fell from the position of extraordinary glory to the level of a deformed creation. Man lost all he had, lost his glory and lost his position. By reason of sin, man could no longer be in the presence of his Creator. Man lost glory in exchange for shame. Though God is always available to help, man’s iniquity has always kept God’s hands from him. Surely the arm of the Lord is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear. Isaiah 59:1-2 NIV.
School Informed man
Since the fall of man, there started a passing of information and a need for learning. But despite the schools and information, man still had a void in his life. School cannot reform a man. For with much wisdom comes much sorrow; the more knowledge, the more grief. Education can raise our pride and Man is in utter darkness that not even highest of education can lighten.
Jesus came to Reform man
To Reform is to put into a new and improved form or condition; to restore to a former good state, or bring from bad to good; to change from worse to better; to amend; to correct; as, to reform a profligate man; to reform corrupt manners or morals. And that is exactly what Christ came to do. There can only be a true restoration of glory through Him. He alone has all power on heaven and on earth to restore man. If only man would accept Him and take to His commands and leadings. By His death and resurrection, anyone who believes in Him and forsakes old life, is born again and can walk in true restoration of glory till His face we see.
The closer you get to God, the more you draw from His glory.
