I Corinthians 11:7 in context is speaking of blood-washed believers who have had that image ‘restored’ through salvation. Man reflects the image and glory of God, but the poor woman in the passage only reflects the glory of the man.

Same with the passage in James . . . only born again believers may bless the Father.

As far as James ‘likeness’ of God . . . it is handy to have so many translations of the Bible because it lets folks make it say what they want it to say.

Similitude speaks of a resemblance, it is that man is a tripartite creature (body, soul and spirit).

Nice example folks. We run off thumping the Bible at each other and the abortionist calmly says, “I have a solution for you. Come in on Thursday.”
