If god created man in his own image, does he have a body?

Question

Does he poop and trim his toenails?

Answer 1

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here and assume that you want a serious answer.

Thinking about the word "image" remember that and image lacks at least one dimension from the actual object. Ie: your image in a mirror is only 2 dimensional, yet you are 3 dimensional. It also depends on the quality of the reflective object as to what parts of the real object you can see. Some parts may be obscured because the mirror you're looking in is flawed.

Therefore, to say that man is created in God's image means that we are a poor reflection of Him. It means that we have many of His characteristics, but are missing something key.

Now, add to that the fact that this statement comes before the "fall of man". There were many things that were changed about the characteristic of man's physical body as a result of the fall. The things that are mentioned in the Bible are that man will work hard for his food, that woman will labor in childbirth and that man will die. Previous to this, there was no sickness or death. That may even mean that there was no need to poop or to trim toenails because there was nothing wasted.

So, does God poop and trim His toenails? Probably not, but if you make it to Heaven, you can ask Him. BTW, the way to make it to Heaven is to admit that you are a flawed creature and that you have made mistakes in your life. Then accept that Jesus' death on the cross paid the penalty imposed by those mistakes. Then, you'll go to Heaven.

God bless you!
