We, as men and women are like God, more than anything else in creation.  Let's be clear, we are in no way identical to God... remember, we are his creation from humble beginnings... dust.  Yet, as theologian Wayne Grudem puts it,  "it is amazing to think that when the creator of the universe wanted to create something 'in his image', something more like himself than all the rest of Creation, he made us."

All of humanity has great dignity as those who bear the image of God.  Think of the rest of God's creation:  the starry universe, the abundant earth, the world of plants and animals, and the angelic Kingdoms.  These are remarkable, even magnificent, but we are more like our creator than any of these things. Think of this when you are pondering the value of human life. (Grudem, Systematic Theology)
