God: Are We Made in His Image?

According to the Bible, God was a fatherly figure. He was called Father "Most High" and his Hebrew names were Elohim, El-Shaddai, Yahweh, Jehovah and Adonai. Abba is a common term used for the creator within Christianity, for example, Jesus used to refer to God the Father. Abba was married to Asherah and they had a number of children who unfortunately were sexless angels who could have children. That is apparently why Abba created Adam in his image and then Eve. But he continued to be concerned about the corruption of mankind. In fact he told Eve in the Garden of Eden that she was not to partake in the fruit of knowledge. Later, in Genesis 6:1-8 there is reference to people who were rapidly expanding the human race based on the fact that "the flesh is weak" and that he gave Noah instructions for the flood. Some say that Lucifer or Satan was the brother of God. This possibly could give rise to the brotherhood of God and Lucifer, and a rivalry; also a reason why God would put his arch enemy over the world to test, or tempt, humanity so he could constantly defeat him, which was a choice position for a hated sibling. To many, the name "Lucifer" is synonymous for Christian Devil since it is present throughout the Bible. He is the Serpent in Genesis and the Dragon in Revelation. The name Lucifer itself originates from Isaiah 14:12 in the King James Version (KJV): How art thou fallen from heaven, 0 Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
