Face to Face: Human Images of God in the Bible

Overview

What Does God Look Like? Have you ever wondered what God looks like? Or what he sounds like? Does he really have eyes to see us and ears to hear us? Does he really smell the sweet aroma of our prayers? What does it mean that humans are created in the image of God? Does that mean that God has eyes and ears? When the writer of Genesis goes on and says, In the image of God he created them, male and female he created them (Gen. 1: 27)? Does this verse mean that our gender reflects gender in God? How are we to understand these expressions about God, when we know that he is a Spirit and does not have a body? Are they merely the way uneducated people in ancient times spoke about things they did not understand? Are we too sophisticated and educated today to pay any attention to these expressions? In short, why are all the human images of God in the Bible, and what are Christians to learn from them in the twenty-first century? This book attempts to answer these questions, and many like them, as we examine the human images of God in the Bible and what they have to say to us today.
