Question 17
How did God create man?
After God had made all other creatures, he created man male and female;1 formed the body of the man of the dust of the ground,2 and the woman of the rib of the man,3 endued them with living, reasonable, and immortal souls;4 made them after his own image,5 in knowledge,6 righteousness,and holiness;7 having the law of God written in their hearts,8 and power to fulfil it,9 and dominion over the creatures;[10] yet subject to fall.[11]
