The last chapter of The Cost of Discipleship by Dietrich Bonhoeffer is entitled ”The Image of Christ.” He writes, “The Holy Trinity has made His dwelling in the Christian heart, filling his whole being, and transforming him into the divine image. Christ, incarnate, crucified and glorified is formed in every Christian soul, for all are members of His Body, the Church. The Church bears the human form, the form of Christ in His death and resurrection. The Church in the first place is His image, and through the Church all her members have been refashioned in His image too. In the Body of Christ we are become ‘like Christ.’”
