Hi! If we are made in God’s physical image (Moses 6:9; D&C 130:22), then why is he only described as ‘he’? Is it not true that females are made in God’s image too (Gen. 1.26-28)? Thanks

Jim from Sheffield,

Hi Jim. Thanks for your question. When the Bible and other scriptures of the restoration say we are made in God's image, we shouldn't assume that we all look like or are even "constructed" exactly as He is. If this were true, we'd all look identical! :) Both men and women -- all human beings -- were created in God's image in a general sense, even though we all have distinctive physical characteristics. Hope this answer helps.
