Bro. Scott, you forgot verse 3. That verse tells what Jesus looked like.
Rev 4:2-3
(2) At once I was in the Spirit, and behold, a throne stood in heaven, with one seated on the throne.
(3) And he who sat there had the appearance of jasper and carnelian, and around the throne was a rainbow that had the appearance of an emerald.
So is THIS what you believe Jesus looked like while on earth?
Bro. Scott, this is not about whether Jesus had an “appearance,” but whether that appearance was a physical flesh and bone body. Can you give any passages that describe Jesus' post-ascension appearance looking like the physical man He was while on earth? So far no one has given any such evidence though it has been asked….
Bro. Scott, John saw prophetic imagery, not a flesh and bone 33.5 year old Jewish man.
