2. Human fallenness leads to an overemphasis on physical appearance as the measure of worth.
A. In Genesis 3, the fall introduces vanity and chasing after worldly beauty.
B. Our fallen state limits our understanding of true beauty and worth.

His transformative power allows us to redefine beauty according to his standards, inviting us to seek internal virtues rather than external allure. Let us strive for a life of Godly beauty, praised by God rather than man.
