Theophany Is a visible manifestation of God By God own choosing In visions (Abraham) In dreams (Jacob) In His glory (Moses) Pillar of fire and Pillar of a cloud

Angels May be a Theophany Gen 16 (Hagar) Judges 13 (Manoah and his wife) Exodus 3 (Moses and the burning bush) Dan. 3 (The fourth man in the furnace)

New Testament Theophanies None recorded Jesus was far more than a theophany God was not just appearing in a visible manifestation Jesus was God Himself manifested in the flesh. John 1:1 & 14, Col. 1:15, Heb. 1:3 and John 1:18

Does God have a body? God did not have a physical body until Jesus Christ. Descriptive terms such as hands, eyes, arms are only figurative language or anthropomorphisms Interpretations of nonhumans in human terms for understanding by humans.

Terms Heart- not a fleshly human heart but God’s love, intellect, and emotions. Right Hand- not a physical hand but God’s power and righteousness. God created His own body through Mary The Elect will see God as He really is through the resurrected gloried body of Christ.
