Genesis 1:26-27
King James Version (KJV)

26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God {created_ man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female _created_ he them.

Key word being CREATED:

cre·ate
krēˈāt/Submit
verb
past tense: created; past participle: created
1.
bring (something) into existence.
"he created a thirty-acre lake"

Ok, that was two step process. Thought then manifestation.

Genesis 2:4-5
King James Version (KJV)

4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were _created_, in the day that the Lord God _made_ the earth and the heavens,

5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and _there was not a man to till the ground_.

SO, this is before man... notice it says WHEN THEY WERE CREATED and THE DAY THAT THE LORD GOD MADE.

make
māk/Submit
verb
1.
form (something) by _putting parts together or combining substances_; _construct_; create.

So, God made man in his likeness and image by playing the Anunnaki like basketballs to get modern man, then God almost was complete in making himself when Christ was around last... now the creator of all will walk the planet, man not being after the likeness and image of their creators, but the creator of their creators.
