Salt and light are images used by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount, one of the main teachings of Jesus on morality and discipleship. [1] These images are in Matthew 5:13, 14, 15 and 16 [2] The general theme of Matthew 5:13–16 is promises and expectations, and these expectations follow the promises of the first part. [2]
Except for those people, genuflection is still today mandatory in some situations, such as (in the Catholic Church) when passing in front of the Blessed Sacrament, or during the Consecration in the Mass. In the King James Version of the Holy Scriptures, the verb "to kneel" occurs more than thirty times, both in the Old and in The New Testament. [9]
No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known. In the Good News Translation of the Bible the text reads: No one has ever seen God. The only Son, who is the same as God and is at the Father's side, he has made him known.
The phrase "image of God" is found in three passages in the Hebrew Bible, all in the Book of Genesis 1–11: . And God said: 'Let us make man in our image/b'tsalmeinu, after our likeness/kid'muteinu; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.'
If so, God has potentiality with respect to that characteristic.

[31]
Only Simon Peter answered him: You are the Christ, the Son of the living God — Matthew 16:15-16 [24] Jesus is mediator, but […] the title means more than someone between God and man. He is not just a third party between God and humanity. [...] As true God he brings God to mankind. As true man he brings mankind to God. [25]
We worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in Unity; Neither confounding the persons nor dividing the substance. For there is one Person of the Father, another of the Son, and another of the Holy Spirit. But the Godhead of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, is all one; the Glory equal, the Majesty co-eternal.
