Christian anthropology begins with the statement that man is made in the image of God, and therefore has intrinsic value. And it proceeds with the understanding that all men are created equal, that God shows no partiality. This topic lays the groundwork for ''why'' justice should be done fairly, with no special regard to either the rich or the poor, the foreign or the native born. The topic also enables an understanding of why it is immoral for one man to harm another man -- because we should not destroy an image bearer of God. It also enables an understanding for why sin is sin in general, because morality is defined by the character of God, and so in general we sin by misrepresenting God's image in ourselves.
