God is spirit, not body

Now a breeze is rarer than the wind; and although it proceeds from wind, yet a breeze is not the wind. One may call a breeze the image of the spirit. In the same manner, man is the image of God, that is, of spirit; for God is spirit.

Tertullian
The Five Books Against Marcion, Book II
Chapter IX
