We HAVE a Spirit; we ARE NOT spirit.
No, that's not quite true. The spirit of man is also in the image of the Spirit of God.
1CORINTHIANS.5: = 4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together,
along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 5 deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that
his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
1COR.2: = 11 For what man knows the things of a man except
the spirit of man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except
the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but
the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.
ISAIAH.48: = 16 “Come near to Me, hear this:
I have not spoken in secret from the beginning;
From the time that it was, I
was there.
And now
the Lord God and His Spirit
Have sent Me.”
GENESIS.1: =
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness
was on the face of the deep. And
the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

Nowhere does it say that woman is the IMAGE of man.
That doesn't mean that women weren't created in the image of God.
Wasn't Eve created out of one of Adam's ribs.?
If a woman is the image and glory of God, just like for a man, what the apostle Paul said about women at 1CORINTHIANS.11:7 & 14:34 would have been very unfair. Hence, Paul did not say that a man and a woman are the image and glory of God.
The truth, according to the Word of God/Bible at GENESIS.1 & 2, is that a woman was not created by God to be equal to a man. The Church of Sweden, in pandering to the feminist movement, want to create God in their own image, ie as a She-God also. ...
ROMANS.1: =
God’s Wrath on Unrighteousness
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown
it to them. 20 For since the creation of the world
His invisible
attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made,
even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, 21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify
Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God
into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
