Adam is image of A Triune God.?
“Adam” is the image of a God who is more than One person.
In Gen 1:26-27 we read for the first time God speaking in plural as in “Us” and “Our”:
26 Then God said, “Let us make Adam in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” 27 So God created Adam in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
Gen 1:26-27
Adam (mankind) is finite and limited expression of the infinite and unlimited being we call God. God created Adam (mankind) to reflect the existence of him.
God first created the male and then took another person out of him which is female and both called them Adam but how is it that the female was taken out of the male but also was called Adam? because she was taken from the man and she was always in the man therefore she out to share the name and nature of the man that’s Gen 5:1-2
This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. Gen 5:1-2
God could refer to a divine being or of person Identification as God the Father (unless the context of scripture referring to The Son or The Spirit), The Son was always a Son to The Father because he is begotten from eternity (John 1:14) and The Spirit always proceeded from the Father eternally (John 15:26)
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only Begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth.
John 1:14

26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father….’
