AB - This paper examines the issues embedded in the posthuman discourse of transhumanism—such as the devaluation of life, distortion of human nature, ne-glect of finitude, reinforcement of elitism and eugenics, and the oversight of technological disparity—as it seeks to extend human lifespan, enhance physical capabilities, and ultimately overcome death through advanced technology. From a christian ethical perspective, this paper critiques the religious anthropology, soteriology, and eschatology implied in posthuman discourse. Furthermore, this study proposes the concept of ‘image of God(Imago Dei)’ as a theoretical foundation for human dignity and social justice in the age of advanced technology. This study suggests that the concept of image of God transcends the boundaries of specific religions, offering a universal value for the realization of human rights and social justice.
