💁🏻 Concept: Theophany

A theophany is a visible appearance of God to reveal Himself to people. In the Old Testament, He often appeared through fire, cloud, or an angel (Genesis 18; Exodus 3:2; Judges 6:11 –24). These were not His full essence, since no one can see God and live (Exodus 33:20 ), but gracious signs of His presence. Many theophanies are seen as Christophanies—pre-incarnate appearances of Christ (John 1:18 ; Hebrews 1:1–3). Ultimately, theophanies show God’s desire to make Himself known, fulfilled when the Word became flesh.
