Also ....who said God the Father doesn’t have a body? ....certainly not the Bible:

Indeed, who said that? But who said God has a body of flesh and blood by nature? The demons of LDS.

I have seen God face to face, Gen. 32:30. - they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet, Ex. 24:10. - written with the finger of God, Ex. 31:18 (Deut. 9:10). - Lord spake unto Moses face to face, Ex. 33:11.

I see, you want to make anthropomorphic language to be literal in order to prove God has a human body, and is not sprit by nature. OK, let us be consistent:

He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. (Psalms 91:4)

"Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings," (Psa 17:8) "...the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings." (Psa 36:7) "...yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge" (Psa 57:1) "...I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah." (Psa 61:4)

Therefore (in accordance e with your judgment) God can be an exalted bird, which would blasphemous as is your married corporeal-bodied god calling himself that of the Bible. And making Christ (the "arm" of the Lord) a married brother of Lucifer. Give it up.

Our relationship with God is obviously spiritual, as that is how we communicate with him through prayer.

Yet, again, we are told in Genesis that we are created in God’s image. I’m assuming that the scripture means that God has an image that looks more or less like man.

Is taking this scripture at face value somehow blasphemous?

Did you know that Emperor Theodosius made the Nicene Creed’s final triumph by forcing belief upon threat of execution through the ‘Eddict of Thesalonica’ in 380 AD?

Somehow .... I never thought that was how Christ desired that his Doctrine should be established.
