Aren’t some representations exactly what they would look like to us if one did appear? We’re not gonna see it in 4D but we’ll see the 3D representation of it being pushed through our space. Like in Flatland, the sphere pushed through 2D would be a point that grows as a circle, shrinks back down to a point, then disappears. They’ll never see a sphere and can’t imagine a sphere, but they would see the 2D representations of it.

KazuyaDarklight@lemmy.world 1 month agoHad a comp sci teacher do a decent job making an argument for the 3-in-1 as our limited three-dimensional interpretation of a multi-dimensional (4+) being. A multi-dimensional existence is going to interact with our three-dimensional world in ways that are impossible to interpret holistically since it extends into and is connected through dimensions that don’t exist for us. Like a tesseract, we have visual representations of tesseracts but they aren’t what a tesseract would actually look like if one appeared in front of you one day.

This would make a good explanation for the bizarre biblical angels, especially having parts of their “body” that aren’t connected to each other. They only appear disconnected in the 3D projection we see, and are actually parts of a 4D organism.

Confirmed, Jesus is in fact a three dimensional cross section of a fourth dimensional being which can inhabit our three dimensional cross section of fourth dimensional space.
