is God invisable to the human eye, but in His presence do we see or does He make His presence in another way? Did Moses see God with his human eyes or some other way.

God is invisible.

1 Tim. 1:17

Heb. 11:27

Colossians 1:15

[Arthur Durnan]

That's a fairly easy one to answer. Jesus said, "He that has seen Me has seen the Father." To see what Jehovah God is like, look to the Lord Jesus Christ. Paul in Colossians One says in the Greek text - exeegeesato - that Jesus Christ has fully revealed the Father. Colossians 2:9 puts it thus: "hoti en auto katoikei plan to pleroma tes theotetos somatikos." IE, the entire fullness of Deity has settled on Christ. WONDERFUL!!

Well, in scripture he looks like a man. Or rather, man looks like God.

Ezekiel 1:26And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it.

27And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about. 28As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.

Isaiah 6

1In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the LORD sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.

2Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.

3And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.

4And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. 5Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.

Genesis 18

1And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;

2And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground, 3And said, My LORD, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant:

10And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him.

11Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.

12Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?

13And the LORD said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old?

14Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son. 15Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.

20And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;

21I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know. 22And the men turned their faces from thence, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the LORD.

In the next chapter, we see two "men" go to soddom, which were angels. The third "man" mentioned here was the LORD himself.

Daniel 3:25

He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.

Clearly, God looks like a man, because man looks like God. Man was created in the image and likeness of God. So man looks like God. God has the same basic form as a man. Head, body, arms, legs, eyes, etc.

Hello WhySoBlind,

Thank you for your comments,

I see that we both agree that He is in the form of a man. God does not have a femine side to Him. Maybe that will get this thread going. what do you think as we are discussing what God looks like right. So for starters He is not feminine at all. He is in male form, has a body, arms, legs, eyes,

Thanks again WhySoBlind

Hello nenaclose,

Thanks for your response. The first part of your reply is what I'm asking other to tell or discuss within this thread so stick around I'm sure it will be answered for you as we continue and I'm not ignoring your questions. the last question you asked I'll answer at this time and my answer is yes what Moses saw of God was in fact seen with his human eyes and no other way.

God Bless

Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. 1 John 3:2

Hello 'man',

Thanks for you input. So from your post correct me if I am wrong but you think nobody can tell us what God looks like or can give us a physical discription of what God looks like because you can't see him right because He is invisible.

God Bless
