When God created man, He made him in the likeness of God.
Genesis 5:1
God created me in His likeness.
I am like God.......?
Yes, the word of God affirms that I am like God.
God does not say this with regards to other animals, creatures, or even angels. But only with regards to a human-being, God says this.
In what sense?
I am not all-powerful like God.
I am not all-knowing like God.
I am not all-present like God.
But I can be loving like God.
And I can be kind like God.
And I can be patient like God.
And I can rejoice with the truth like God.
And I can protect, trust, hope and persevere like God.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
God is love.
And the purpose of my being is to love like God.
When God created man, He made him in the likeness of God. That man may love like God. Or at least, man may learn to love like God for all eternity. For ever and ever.

God laughs at them who stand against Him
The One enthroned in heaven laughs;
the Lord scoffs at them.
Psalm 2:4
I never noticed the humour of this verse.
God laughs!!!! Hahahahahahaha.
God laughs at those who stand against Him.
They think they can oppose God and somehow establish their own idolatrous kingdom on the earth.
If I think I can oppose God and establish my own little idolatrous kingdom, God laughs at me!!! Haha~
Haha~
God laughs at them.
God laughs at me (if I oppose Him!)
God scoffs at them.
God scoffs at me (if I oppose Him!)
"Scoff" means "to laugh or say things to show that you think someone or something is stupid or deserves no respect." according to Macmillan Dictionary.
Haha.
So it follows that God laughs and say things to show that He thinks those who oppose Him are stupid and deserve no respect. Period.
So I can be very stupid and deserve no respect If I opposed God!!
Haha.
It goes to show how stupid it would be oppose God.
How very stupid of me would it be if I opposed God!!! Hahaha
He made me and made you and every one of us.
If anyone (including me) would dare to oppose God, it would be like a pottery opposing its maker, the potter.
the Lord scoffs at them.

Like A Tree Planted By Streams Of Water
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.
Happy is the man who does not follow the advice of the wicked, sinful and idolatrous.
Happy is the man who does not stand around with those who scheme evil things.
Happy is the man who does not sit around with those who mock other people and God.
But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.
His happiness is derived from the word of God, and on His word, he muses in the morning and night.
He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
This man is just like a tree planted near a river, that produces its delicious, wholesome fruit in season and whose leaf is green and flourishing.
He succeeds in everything he does.
Psalm 1:1-3
