“Let us make humankind in our image, according to our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the wild animals of the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.” So God created humankind in his image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. (Gen 1:26-27)

神 說 ： 我 們 要 照 著 我 們 的 形 像 、 按 著 我 們 的 樣 式 造 人 ， 使 他 們 管 理 海 裡 的 魚 、 空 中 的 鳥 、 地 上 的 牲 畜 ， 和 全 地 ， 並 地 上 所 爬 的 一 切 昆 蟲 。神 就 照 著 自 己 的 形 像 造 人 ， 乃 是 照 著 他 的 形 像 造 男 造 女 。(創世紀 1:26~27)

Can we be more like God? The Names and the Attributes of God from Bahá’u’lláh’s Writings can help us have a better understanding of what God is like. I hope this will help us in our spiritual practice.

我們如何可以更有神的樣子? 或許從巴哈歐拉告訴我們的上帝名號與屬性可以幫助我們對上帝的形像有更清楚的認識，可以作為我們靈性成長、屬靈操練、修心修行努力的方向。
