anthropology, prophecy, ethics

More thinking out loud . . .

Christians believe that human beings are created in the image of God. Is there a place for the prophetic as much as the sapiential in an Orthodox theological anthropology? In other words, is it possible to speak of God, wisdom, and prophecy when delineating what it means to be made in God's image? Of course, Orthodox theology makes a distinction between the image and the likeness of God, which adds, it seems to me, a teleological dimension to the discussion.
