The image of God
The image of God talks more about God character and His personality. The image of God is the whole factor about christianity. The goal of christianity is stirring up the image of God through embracing the teachings of our Lord and Master Jesus Christ. The image of God is the message that changes nations and transform the whole world. The image of God is not His attribute; it is His values, divine nature and character. Love is a divine nature of God. The only way to get rid of demons in one’s life is to be baptize by love. Love is an antidote to demons.

[9] He will not always chide: Neither will he keep his anger for ever.
[10] He hath not dealt with us after our sins; Nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
[11] For as the heaven is high above the earth, So great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
[12] As far as the east is from the west, So far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
[13] Like as a father pitieth his children, So the LORD pitieth them that fear him.” (Psalm chapter 103 verses 7 to 13 KJV)
