What does the Bible say about the image of God?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that the image of God was lost through Adam's sin but is restored in believers through Christ.

The scripture reveals that Adam was created in the image of God, but this image was marred by sin when he fell. In Christ, however, believers are promised restoration to the image of God. 2 Corinthians 4:4 highlights Christ as the image of God and Colossians 3:10 speaks to the new nature received in Christ being renewed in His image. Ultimately, believers hold onto the hope that they will be resurrected and fully restored, reflecting God's glory perfectly in their new bodies.
