God incarnate
Deity made flesh
God incarnate refers to a deity taking on human or physical form.
In Christian theology, the term specifically describes Jesus Christ as God made flesh—divine nature dwelling in a human body.
More broadly, it can describe anyone or anything seen as the perfect embodiment of godlike qualities: He thinks he's God incarnate.
The phrase often carries ironic weight when applied to mortals with inflated egos.
