In Exodus, we are told no man (or woman) can see the face of God and live. Another couple of passages. Ezekiel 1:26-28, “Above the expanse over their heads was what looked like a throne of sapphire, and high above on the throne was a figure like that of a man. I saw that from what appeared to be his waist up he looked like glowing metal, as if full of fire, and that from there down he looked like fire; and brilliant light surrounded him. Like the appearance of a rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the radiance around him.” Revelation 1:14-16, “His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters. In his right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance.”

If you go to heaven when you die, you will see exactly what God looks like, face to face.

He looks like everthing!

God is in everything, the essence of the universe is touched by his energy. All the entropy is really a cleaver design that is to reach equilibrium.

I also agree with the option that a human mind cannot conceive the appearance of God. I think God is too abstract to visualize 100%.

We were created in his image, but Moses is the only one that got a
glimpse of him, because if we see him in our natural state, we will
die. Or so it is stated, so I guess i will just have to wait until
Heaven.

I believe that when it says we were created in Gods Image it didn't mean Phy: appearance it ment that we have attributes like his. wisdom, Love, we have the ability to reason. The bible tells us that flesh and blood can not inter into heaven. so God would be a spirit. so I see him as pure engery.

He looks like us. We were made in His image. That’s in Geneses and we know in general what He looks like.

Patrick to Sir Jim 2007/07/15 10:37:32

Does that reference mean our soul, spirit, or our body?

reply
Sir Jim to Patrick 2007/07/15 10:40:06

Our body. When He created Adam he was created in the image of God.

I don't think that's what's meant by "In God's Image". It's a reference having consciousness, awareness, knowledge, and the capacity for wisdom.

If that suits you it certainly suits me. God may be different to each and every person and your take on scripture is yours and I don't have any problem with that. He knows what He is doing and how you and He communicate is wonderful anyway. God Bless...
