When you think of God, what or who do you see?

Question

In other words, how do you put a face on something that is aware of everything and is everywhere at once?

Answer 1

Exactly, I see everything and everyone, every age and time, all of existence at once.

Answer 2

Good question. When I picture God, I see him as omnipotent (he is everywhere at all times) and I envision him as a great powerful blinding light. When I envision Jesus Christ, I see a brown skin, brown haired, brown eyed man with middle eastern features.

Sidenote: I dont for one minute believe the lie that Jesus was pale skinned, blond hair, blue eyed. That is physically impossible just because of the area in which he lived and the environmental conditions, there is no way he could have be white.

Answer 3

Well I dont put a face on Him, but what I do see are the beautiful mountains that I live in, the trees and how they change color every year, the snow that falls so silently, the birds that sing in the spring, my children and how blessed I am to have them, my church and how spirit-filled it is, rainbows, flowers and trees that bloom in the spring...the sun and moon, how perfectly round they are and how they just sit in the sky...All these things and more is what I see when I think of God... :o)

Answer 4

The face I do put a face to Him is one of the statue of Abraham Lincoln. The first American president. There is on of him sitting on a chair behind four enormous pillars, in Washington D.C.

Answer 5

Have you ever read the Bible? I ask in sincerity for the question leaves some gaps.

(2Corinthians 4:5-to-10) For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.

(2Co 4:6) For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

(2Co 4:7) But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

(2Co 4:8) We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;

(2Co 4:9) Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;

(2Co 4:10) Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.

Answer 6

Who says He isn't everywhere at once? He is EVERYWHERE and He dwells in the heart of every believer all over the world. He's like the wind; we can't see wind but we know it's around because we feel it.

Answer 7

Do you have any kids? If you do...when you do...you know them. You know their personalities, you pretty much know what they would do in a situation...and we aren't perfect. God is your Heavenly Father. He knows you better than anyone. When I talk to him, I talk to him like I would my father here on earth. I've never really thought about putting a face to him. I just know he's there, and I know he answers my prayers. We are all his children...and he loves us all.

Answer 8

I don't put a face on God....I can't, so I see nothing. When I think of God, what I *feel* is warmth and love.

Answer 9

I don't visually try and see anything,I get a feeling in my heart when I think about or talk to God !

Answer 10

my understanding of the bible causes me to believe that we are not to put a face on God. Exodus 20 no graven images.
