Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; Heb 1:3 (nkjv).
Here “express image” comes from the Greek word that means “character”. Similar to the impression a seal leaves in wax: which means Jesus is the exact impression of God (William Barclay). So when we choose to follow Jesus we are to become ‘godly’ (righteous) by becoming more like Jesus (John 13:15, Rom 12:2, 2 Cor 5:21, Phil 2:5, 1 Peter 2:21, 1 John 2:6). 😇
