Theologians have an interesting question. Does Scripture teach that man is no longer in the image of God? Or does it suggest that the image remains but has been grossly defaced? In many ways (the latter) is an even more tragic prospect. We might well be justified in thinking that there could be no greater disaster than that the likeness of God should be exterminated. But in fact there is. What if the image of God, in which His greatness and glory are reflected, becomes a distortion of His character? What if, instead of reflecting His glory, man begins to reflect the very antithesis of God? What if God's image becomes an anti-god? This, essentially, is the affront which fallen man is to God. He takes all that God has lavished upon him to enable him to live in free and joyful obedience, and he transforms it into a weapon by which he can oppose His Maker. The very breath, which God gives him thousands of times each day, he abuses by his sin. The magnitude of his sin is also the measure of his need of salvation.

NOTE: Enough chopped vegies to fill a 9x13 pan within about 3" from the
top. Mixture can include anything (I used brocolli, carrots, parsnips, but
you can use ANYTHING...spinach, swiss chard, celery, cauliflower, green
beans, zucchini....) Frozen, fresh, whatever. You may want to precook
(steam/nuke) large chunks of harder vegies such as carrots and parsnips.
Saute onion till soft.  Add garlic, bell pepper, peas and mixed vegies,
saute about 5 minutes to soften.  Add the rest of the ingredients, stir,
and simmer, covered for about 15 minutes or so, till everything is tender.
Dump mixture into a 9x13 pan, spead mashed potatoes on top.  The mashed
potato layer should be about 2" or more thick.  Sprinkle with paprika and
place in a 350 oven for about 15 minutes to heat through.
