It is said in Holy Bible that God created man in his own images....but Bible says God is spirit why this contradiction?
Genesis 1:27 says : So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
John 4:24 says : God is a spirit. Those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth
Is there a contradiction between Genesis 1:27 and John 4:24.
Genesis 1:27 does not suggest that God takes on a human form. Instead, it indicates that humans reflect God's image through their moral, spiritual, and intellectual qualities.
God created people from dust and breathed life into them with His own breath (Genesis . 2:7). Thus, humans are unique among all of God's creations, possessing both a material (body) and an immaterial (soul) component. Bearing the image and likeness of God simply means that we were made to resemble God in all the deeds. God wants us to be in an eternal relationship with Him.
So Genesis 1:27 doesn't contradict John 4:24.

The Apostle's Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried, He descended into hell; the third day He arose again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven, sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty, from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
