okay.

Read 1 John 5:7

29You hide Your countenance and they are frightened; You gather in their spirit and they perish and return to dust
30You will send forth Your spirit and they will be created, and You will renew the surface of the ground.
31The glory of the Lord will be forever; the Lord will rejoice with His works.

We are spiritual beings dwelling in a physical body made of dust..

Scatterscatter:
Talking about "in God's image & likeness" points to the tripite nature of God.

God the father (soul)
God the Spirit (Spirit)
God the Son (body)

Mind you, God is one but He manifests in different dimensions.

Man is also a tripite being because we are a Spirit, we have a Soul and we live in a body.

Meaning man is God

You are quoting a fabrication for me.. If I quote Koran for you will you accept it?.. We need something outside of the new testament to confirm it... Give me an Evidence from the old testament that God had a son or that we are expected to believe the death of the messiah in other to be saved..

lol. I will give you. But do you actually need it when Jesus HIMSELF said it? If truly you are a Christian as you call yourself..

Gen.1:26 "God created man in his own image and likeness."Does it refer to the bodily or biological form,because God is a spirit and man is earthly,it is also true that the body does not belong to the image,since God does not have a body.

God has a body, a spiritual body.

God created man as a spiritual body as Himself but he clothed him with a physical body.

Lol. Did you know that of all you just quoted, you just proved yourself wrong and proved me right?

Man, this is deception. The Devil has successfully deceived many of us.

Kindly explain 1 John 5:7 if you say the Trinity is a man-made concept.

Besides I didn't say God is three. Read the 1 John 5:7 to understand.

Bros, you are DECEIVING yourself and console YOURSELF

Revelations 3:5,12 Jesus Christ CONFESSED himself is God's Son in heaven.
John 20:17 Jesus Christ himself CONFESSED himself is God's Son on earth and in heaven.

Apostle Paul CONFESSED Jesus himself can NOT Lie ...(1 Cor3:23. 2 Cor 11:31)
The only option is .."Playthepianos" LIED..

1 Corinthians 15:40, NIV:
"[b]There are also heavenly bodies and there are earthly bodies; [/b]but the splendor of the heavenly bodies is one kind, and the splendor of the earthly bodies is another.

Is 1st Corinthians 15:40 in your copy of the Bible?

1st Corinthians 15:50, does flesh and blood dwell in heaven?

Why do you confuse yourself?

I am no liar...

When I say God has a body, I don't mean a physical body with blood, but a spiritual body. God passed by Moses and covered his view so as not to see his face.

God is a SPIRIT and He has a spiritual form or a bodily form.

Spirits do have a form but it isn't physical.

How did an angel kill 185000 soldiers in a one night if he didn't have a form?

Simplified question: Is God having a pair of useless nipples like men?

Lol.. Noo.. But to make us understand our creator we have personified it.. By giving it human attributes... God is the universal spirit responsible for creation. It is part of us, and we are part of it..

You are opening a bizarre piece of history, "How Christianity became Roman official religion?".
During the Roman empire there were a lot of religions inside the empire, how came it was Christianity fused with Roman state?

What if Roman empire still exist as a Roman Church?
People have to understand before they believe.

Is God having a body like ours?
If not, by which image our bodies were sculptured?

If you agree people attribute God with some human qualities in order to understand him, what if among those attributes is THE EXISTENCE?

I'm just asking though grin

Actuality man created god in his own image and likeness.

There is a book called Brief history of humankind by a Jew Prof. Yuval Harari.
He literally urgued that God is an imagination existing only in people's collective imaginations.

The book is worthy of your time.

Man is a composite of spirit and body.. spirit enclosed in a physical body made from dust off the Earth. God is actually NO thing, but EVERY thing...God is existence itself..
