if you looked at god would it kill you?

if you looked at god would it kill you, or what if you looked at jesus, would that kill you?

The Bible says it would...And that's if you think God is this big glowing ball of illumines light....

so if god showed himself to you then he would be a murderer, because it would be the same as him killing you. i dont think that i want to see him until after i die.

No I don't think God the father would reveil himself to us in his full form.

so what he only shows a foot or hand or something like that at a time?

Gods invisible....maybe we are looking right through It/Him.....

Yeah, I know, invisible..

I thought his form only had the potential to blind... but maybe it does kill, though I must wonder why, although in the old Testament at least there appeared to be indications that people, such as Adam had seen him, though for chaps like Moses it seems he was obscured.

And it depends on what form of Jesus. Many people apparently saw him on earth, both prior and post resurrection.

That is true, along with Hitler and JFK. They probably all share a flat or something. Though this does beg the question, does seeing Elvis cause death 😱

yes, you will die if you see god in his real form. for he said to moses that no man can see me and live, but moses did see his back. He covered his eyes when he saw the burning bush. His holiness is too great for us. the Israelites told moses that is god spoke it would kill them. when moses came down from the mountain, his face was shown with god's glory and no one could see him and asked moses to cover his face when he came down the mountain.

So wait, all those Jewish people spent the next 40 years in the desert not looking at Moses?

no moses only saw the form of god like make in a burning bush or a pillar of a cloud, this is the only way God can show himself without killing people. He took the form of Jesus so he would not have to be in a form of a bush or a cloud. moses saw the cloud of God and that was enough to make his face glow and when he saw the bush he saw only a glimpse of Glory and that is why he covered his face. When God was in a form of a cloud this is not what he looked like but it was the as close he could get to the Israelites without killing them. They spent forty years in a desert because they were to chicken to take over a country, even through god put Egypt to its knees, they made a bunch of excuse that they were too strong and too many despite God destroyed Egypt.

What...........So you can't look at god, because hes to holy, what if you never left a room th ewhole of you life and you were very clean (as cleanliness is next to godliness) so you couldnt have the chance to sin are you not the n holy so could you see him and babys can't sin so would they be able to, there supposed to be able to see fairy becasue of that

nope, our sin would be destroyed if we saw him and if our sin is destroyed so are us. we can clean ourselves all the time and still be killed because we have sinned. babies do sin but they don't know what right and wrong is.

Jesus so he would not have to be in a form of a bush or a cloud. moses saw the cloud of God
