Q197: Did God live on earth?

No, not God himself, His ‘Only begot-ton Son’ (Jesus) came to represent Him for three years. ‘Only begotton’ means very special and Jesus was it. Jesus said: “I and the Father are one.” And, “I only speak what my Father tells me to say.” And, “If you have seen me you have seen the Father.”

This is hard to comprehend that God, Jesus and The Holy Spirit are one. A bit like water can be in three forms: solid, liquid or gas... or ice, water and vapour (steam or mist)are all the same stuff.

The Christian religion has no images, statues or things one can touch and see. Some ‘Icons’ are made because, I think, some people need something they can actually see and even touch – it helps some folk. The Bible does not mention them as necessary.
