Part of the image of God in man (i.e., His "natural image") is obscured, but not destroyed by sin; and part of God’s "moral image" is lost to man as the result of sin but restored in Christ.

H. Wayne House

Der US-amerikanische evangelikale Theologe, Neutestamentler und Jurist H. Wayne House (* 1948) lehrte an mehreren Hochschulen und Seminaren in den USA. Er profilierte sich durch Arbeiten an der Schnittstelle von Exegese, Apologetik und Recht sowie als Mitbegründer des Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, das ein komplementaristisches Verständnis der Geschlechterrollen vertritt. Für Bibelleser sind vor allem seine didaktischen Übersichtstafeln und Bibelkommentare von Bedeutung, die historische, theologische und bibelwissenschaftliche Zusammenhänge systematisch ordnen.
