In His image He created them, both male and female. God is a spirit being; so He created man in His image and likeness does not really mean physical appearance. God is a Spirit, and He created man a spirit being.
So that He can have fellowship and communion with man. Man is in the class of God and through the spirit man, and by the Holy Ghost; man can contact God and vice versa.

Man is a special breed, mam was the god of this world.
