How does Mark portray God?
In Mark's Gospel, the focus was on Jesus, with very little reason to portray God. However, Mark did portray God in the passages on the baptism of Jesus and the transfiguration. In Mark 1:11, there came a voice out of heaven, saying Thou art my beloved son in whom I am well pleased. In Mark 9:7, a cloud overshadowed the disciples and a voice came out of the cloud. So, when Mark had to portray God, it was as a voice out of heaven or out of a cloud.

What are 3 things that God said to Jesus?
Presuming the question to refer to the three times the New Testament records God's voice speaking from heaven while Jesus was on the earth:Matthew 3:17 - And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." (Following Jesus' baptism)Matthew 17:5 - While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!" (Following the Transfiguration)John 12:28 - "Father, glorify Your name." Then a voice came from heaven, saying, "I have both glorified it and will glorify it again." (Following Jesus' "Triumphal Entry" into Jerusalem)[Quotes from NKJV]
Should Jesus came back to Earth physically?
In Acts 1 it says: Acts 1:9 And when he [Jesus] had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. Acts1:10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Acts 1:11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. (AV) It stands to reason that if the "men of Galilee" watched a physical Jesus being 'taken up' into heaven, and if He is to 'come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven,' then He will certainly return a physical Jesus. Should He do that? If He is as good as His word, yes, He should.
