Bible Question: Does God have wings since angels have wings? Or does He not need them? |
Bible Answer: No. God has no wings, and neither do angels. They are spirits, and a spirit hath not flesh or feathers. But we should thank Hank for his excellent note on anthropomorphic speech, in this thread. Please read it. And thank God for finding a way to speak to us about spiritual things. No man has seen God at any time (John 1:18) and that in spite of what he said to Moses (Exodus 33), or what the prophet said he saw (Isaiah 6). In spite of what he saw, there are no wings on spirit beings. God is a spirit (John 4) and a spirit has no wings. But work. Work your faith. And may the LORD recompense your work, and a full reward be given you of the LORD God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to trust. |
