AND LET'S SEE WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS. . .
Acts 7:54-56
54 When they heard these things they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth. 55 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God, 56 and said, "Look! I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!"
NKJV
You think this was all PHYSICAL 'seeing?'
FULL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. . .means nothing to you?
You think GOD CONTRADICTS HIMSELF?
1 Tim 1:17
17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
NKJVCol 1:15-16
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
NKJV
YOUR gods may contradict themselves (and each other), but the REAL GOD, THE ONLY GOD, THE GOD OF THE BIBLE does not.
YOUR CULT'S INVENTER lied, of course.
Invisible DOESN'T mean invisible? You think God lied?
Mickey posted:
Invisible means "unseen" not that He is actually invisible. There's plenty of biblical verses that show He is not invisible.
Invisible doesn't mean invisible? You think God lied when He led Paul to write:
Col 1:15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
NKJV
It begins from the creation of man made in the "image" of God
The INVISIBLE IMAGE, of God.
Definition of image
a representation of the external form of a person or thing.
synonyms: likeness, resemblance;
Now for the REAL definition of the word used in Genesis 1:27, instead of YOUR SELF-MADE-UP PIECE OF MODERN ENGLISH daffynishun:
OT:6754
tselem (tseh'-lem); from an unused root meaning to shade; a phantom, i.e. (figuratively) illusion, resemblance; hence, a representative figure, especially an idol:

Of course IN YOUR IGNORANCE you would not know that was what the word REALLY meant. And IF YOU CAN READ, you should notice there is NOTHING THERE about "external" anything at all.
Jesus says if you have seen Him you have seen God. Jesus looks just like His Father.
Please explain how this is so if God is invisible.
ONLY if you 'read into the text' junk that is NOT THERE. Of myself, I can say if you have seen my son, you have seen me too. He doesn't look a BIT like me (and he is glad. . .:) ) But he LIVES like me, THINKS like me, ACTS A LOT like me.
That IDIOM does NOT need to refer to ANYTHING PHYSICAL AT ALL.
Your ignorance is showing.
