God is a mind that concieved us within his own transendant imagination.
Yes he made us in his own image & yes he can take a physical form if he chooses. But nobody can depict an image of ones mind. That is impossable.
I agree with Q that I wouldnt take EVERYTHING the bible says to be literal. A lot of it has been changed over time by man and even the nature of certain characters in the bible has been re-written to serve the purpose of those involved in religion.
Sin is not a list of rules. And painting portraits of jesus isnt going to anger god really.. But painting a portrait of god is like depicting something that is beyond the span of our imagination. Therefore it is foolish to try and show him in a picture by any means available to us on Earth. And the bible is quick to use Sin as its buzz word for every bad choice humans can make..
Make sense?
