If by express image you are referring to the Christ, then when he presents himself to the world we will be just like him. Lots of express images. The term "express image" comes from the Greek word for character. We will be a stamped with the character image of Christ.

There is ONLY ONE express image of the Father.

ONLY ONE. And God created it, then used IT to create everything else.

The express image is much more than the human Jesus.

The Aramaic says "his exact nature", he is an exact copy of the Father.

A spirit being and he needed a body to dwell in, Jesus.

80% of my 30+ translations agree with Exact nature of the Father.

You do not understand the verse Jamie.

Also see Col 1:15.

He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. (John 1:2-3)​

Let's say for the sake of discussion all things would mean all things. Yeah, that's a stretch but to claim otherwise is to dispute John.

I see no reason to dispute John just to cling to some wild-eyed theory that he who created all things didn't create all things.

Do you have a cherry orchard? I mean besides scripture.

And he and the Father are in the process of making humans exact copies of the two of them.

Or are you going to also claim that the Spirit did not create humans to be in the image and likeness of themselves.

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. (Colossians 1:15-16)

And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence. (Colossians 1:17-18)​

Let's say for the sake of discussion all things would mean all things, maybe even everything that was created.

You forget that God is A Spirit being.
His exact copy is also a spirit being.

Are you a spirit being or a human?

The Son that created the Universe was a spirit being.
Not a hunan being.

That spirit being went into and spoke through Jesus who is the body prepared for it.

I pray that you can understand my thoughts, you do not seem to.

Do you not understand that when we receive a new body it will be a heavenly body, a spiritual body (1 Cor.15:44)?

Before the Lord Jesus "was made flesh" He was in heaven with a heavenly body, a spiritual body.

It was not Jesus that came down from above, it was the spirit son that dwelled in Jesus that did. That spirit son is the son that was SENT. Jesus was born as a man and did not exist until Mary gave birth to him.
