Does God have a face ?

Question

Answer 1

It's an imaginary thing, you can put the face that you want.

Answer 2

Yes. A. Look at nature- The sun rise, a sun set, the ocean with its waves, such a wide spectrum of people, places, animals, plants...all things. We, in a since, can see God, His handiwork, His power, in all these things. Nothing is exactly alike, all things are unique. We can see the face of God in much of what we see, hear, feel, and more. B. Moses was in the presents of God (see the Bible book of Exodus) but Moses could not look directly at God- only an image. Moses just seeing this image made Moses face shine so much that for a time,people could hardly look at him. God was too great to even look upon. God is neither male or female, young or old. God is just that...God. C. God, via the Son of God..Jesus, was very visible. Jesus took the form (appearance) of man while He was physically on earth. Jesus was born as a male. No such thing as cameras were around then, so all we have are paintings and drawings of what some feel He might have looked like. None of these were eyewitnesses and as such, the idea we have as to what Jesus actually looked like may or may not, be accurate. It isn't so much what Jesus LOOKED like but what He DID for us that counts. Hope this helps.

Answer 3

Different cultures have different ideas about the appearance of gods. The Hebrew god Yahweh is usually portrayed as an old patriarch like Abraham. I prefer the Greek gods. Zeus and his two brothers look mature and dignified, but Apollo is a young and handsome man. Aphrodite is a lovely goddess. I do not think any gods exist, so picture them as you like. I am an artist. I painted Greek goddesses, gods, heroines and heroes when I was 16-27 years old. Yahweh never did appeal to me.

Answer 4

I don't know what He would look like, but many have attempted to describe or illustrate it. Perhaps the most famous painting of Him is by Michelangelo in his painting of "The Creation of Adam" on the Sistine Chapel ceiling. Dante claimed, in his Comedia, "all'alta fantasia qui mancò possa" - "at this high moment, ability failed my capacity to describe" and others have suggested that He is pure light and energy.

But really what I wanted to share is one of my favorite passages regarding the face of God; not what He looks like, but what a blessing it must be to know it.

"They have slipped the surly bonds of Earth, and touched the face of God"
- from President Reagan's moving speech after the Space Shuttle Challenger was lost

Answer 5

yes I believe he does...when He was with moses on the mountain top ...the bible says that God put His hand in front of moses eyes as he walked by and then allowed Moses to see his back.....so if he has a back and a hand then he must have a face.....the word says that we were created in his image....I believe that means in body image too...

Answer 6

In Holy Scripture this question is answered when Jesus Christ says that "anyone who has seen me has seen the Father"
The answer therefore is that God's human appearance is Jesus Christ, whose image has been passed down to us through iconography.

Answer 7

I dont think he has a face, or a body. Like an energy, the sun or something...

Answer 8

He is a force. He is not a man or a woman.

Answer 9

I think He would look exactly like Jesus... WAIT He is Jesus, who is also God, as God is also Jesus and the Holy Spirit!

Answer 10

Your going to staring at something face to face. on Judgment day :)
