Knock off’s are a big problem in today’s society. If someone comes up with something successful it’s already been done and can never been done again so it is just natural for others to imitate it because it’s impossible to invent something that has already been invented. In this country there are laws prohibiting knock offs. However when it comes to everything that is good, everything that is right God has already invented all those things and they can never be improved upon. However in His wisdom, grace and love He does not hold a copyright or patent on these things He wants us to imitate Him. You know what they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. So when it comes to knocking off God you don’t have to keep these things in the trunk of your car or in an alley somewhere. You can put everything that is good and right out on display for all to see for you may be imitating God but everything you are putting on display is the original. It’s okay to imitate God, after all you can never be God and the Bible does tell us to imitate Him.
Ephesians 5:1
1 Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children.
