This topic is debated among Christian theologians. In Christianity there is what is called the Trinity. There is only one God but there are three distinct aspects or parts. See Trinity for a full explanation God the Father is always referenced as spirit. The Holy Spirit is always referenced as a spirit. Jesus is the only part of the Godhead that is ever referenced as spirit and physical or human. There are physical aspects attributed to God the Father in describing His attributes but all are figurative. The earliest reference to seeing God occurs in Genesis where Adam and Eve walked with God in the Garden of Eden. According to the Old Testament, no one has seen God the Father. Yet there are more than one reference to God being seen. Christians conclude that this was Jesus, preincarnate walking with Adam and Eve in the Garden. Christians conclude that because The Bible clearly states that no one has seen God that it is logical to conclude that any "sighting of God" in the bible is actually of Jesus.
