What does the Bible say about everyone is important?

Bible Topic · WEB

The Bible teaches that every person has real dignity and worth because God created humanity in his image, knows each life, and offers salvation freely in Christ. Genesis 1:26 grounds human value in God’s design, while Matthew 10:29-31 assures believers of the Father’s personal care. Though all have sinned and deserve death, Romans 3:23 and Romans 6:23 show that no one is beyond the need for grace. God demonstrated his love by sending Christ for sinners, as Romans 5:8 and John 3:16 declare. In the church, each member has a needed place, for 1 Corinthians 12:14 teaches that Christ’s body is made of many members.
