DOES GOD HAVE HUMAN FORM? – With Rabbi Michael Skobac
Judaism and Christianity don't only differ on the question of whether Jesus was the Messiah. A more critical issue is the Christian claim that Jesus was actually God who came to earth and took on human form. This is referred to as the 'Incarnation'.
In ascribing divinity to Jesus, Christianity asserts that the Creator, indeed, is physical and has human form.
This video addresses this critical issue and shows that the scriptures clearly teach that God does not have human form and cannot have human form. In addition, Rabbi Skobac addresses the question of how to understand various passages in the Bible that seem to imply that God has physical attributes.
JEWS FOR JUDAISM is an international organization dedicated to countering the multi-million dollar efforts of Christian missionary groups that target Jews, the impact of cults and eastern religions, and the growing rate of intermarriage that is devastating the Jewish community. JEWS FOR JUDAISM achieves its goal through FREE educational programs, materials and counseling services that connect Jewish people to the spiritual depth, beauty and wisdom of Judaism and keeps Jews Jewish.
