The Perfect Image

"He is our peace, who will make us both one by breaking down the wall of hostility, that he may create in himself one new man in place of the two, so bringing peace.” This being of peace is a person, not a doctrine or philosophy. He is a person who breaks down the wall of hostility between you who are seated here and your true identity, who is a son of God, one with his Father. ... By fulfilling his primal wish, which was: "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness." God fell asleep to his true awareness and began a good work in you, which he will bring to completion on the day of Jesus Christ who is described as being the perfect image of God, one who reflects and radiates God's glory. When his good work is finished, in you, then you - the image - will be superimposed upon him, and you will know yourself to be the Father. There is only God in the world. Having taken upon himself the limitation of man (as you are) he is working you into his image from within. And when you - the made, are as perfect as he - the Maker, you rise as one man, enhanced by reason of the experience of making an image which radiates and reflects your glory.

The 'Perfect Image' refers to the ultimate state of man, where he becomes 'one new man' with God, fulfilling God's primal wish to make man in His image. This is achieved through a divine process where God, having 'fallen asleep' into humanity, works from within to perfect man. Upon completion, the human 'image' is superimposed upon the divine 'Maker,' and man awakens to know himself as the Father, enhanced by the experience of limitation.
