The Glorious Anatomy

*Disclaimer at Bottom*
John 1.14- The Word Became Flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory and the glory of the one and only, who came from the Father full of Grace and truth

So, I've been asking questions lately, a couple which I know the answer to but don't like it, and a couple that no one seems to have an answer to. Then I had a question that popped up when I was doing my Bible homework. With us being made in God's image what all did Jesus have to change to become man? Did he have any change in the way he looked? Obviously he had to look like a human and not like God, but what all changed?

His appearance may not have changed greatly but he did change. Jesus' becoming man took away certain abilities that made him 'God'. First when he became human he lost his ability to be omnipresent. Obviously seeing as he was confined to a human body. Was he also omniscient? Did he still know everything? Some say that He knew all that he was supposed to.
Mark 13:32- "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."
But if Jesus wasn't omniscient...is he still God? John 1.1-2 states, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the word was God. He was with God in the beginning."
So Jesus is God.
That's all lovely but what other confinements were there? The Bible says he became man, not he became like man, but he became man.
Is there a chance that there is a differance in the anatomy of Humans compared to God? people just assume God looks like us, because we were made in his image. The Bible never said physical image, there is a good chance that it could mean that it's Spiritually we were made in his image.

There's a possibilty that the reason Jesus had to become man was because God has a 'glorious anatomy' not a physical one. He had no need of a physical body, until he sent his son to earth.
