Question is GOD black?

Is God black? What about Adam, is he black too?

Since Black people may be the first people on Earth?

If you guys see God as a Black person, what would your reaction be like?

Did it say somewhere in the Bible what God looks like?

I imagine God is beyond simple distinctions like race. Jesus is described as having hair like a lamb - and that sounds a great deal more like "black" hair than euro-white guy hair to me. I imagine Jesus probably looked like modern-day people of the same area - middle-eastern. It only serves to reason.

That said, I think it's important to identify with God and make him/her personal to you. So, if you need God to be black, well, then he/she very well may be.

God was portrayed by a black actor in the film Bruce Almighty, which was otherwise a pretty weak film. I don't think anyone freaked about that (some freaked about wasting their money on tickets for the film, though).

I see god as energy, not as a human being, so the notion of God being black would not bother me in the least as I don't see God as being white, asian, hispanic, or any other race either.

REALLY?!?!? You might have thought that there were some folks who'd be upset about that. I remmy reading about the fact that some uber cons got upset when Jesus was portrayed as black in some Passion plays.

God is more then our puny little human minds can perceive. But you know.....it would be SO ironic as heck for some folks (like Christian ID) folk if God DID turn out to be black. But, I think that God is all different colors of the rainbow. He is every color and no color.

It did not say what God look alike in bible, but I was grilled by those artists by painted God as white beard man. U know famous pix of Adam and God.

What about yellow?
What about red?
What about brown?

I won't be shocked if God wears as black but I do not see God as a person but a supreme being alike any kind of shapes.

God isn't black.

God isn't white.

God is NOTHING.
