Q.-Do the following scriptures teach that we the children of God shall never see God? " No man hath seen God at any time." " He dwelleth in light, which no man can approach unto." " Whom no man hath seen, nor can see."
" He (Christ) is the image of the invisible God." A.J.R.
A.-It seems to me that the querist supplies the answer. The pure in heart are to see God, but Christ is the medium, whether in grace or in glory. Scripture cannot be broken; and both John and Paul intimate that it is Christ who reveals Him to us. The manner of our seeing God is made as plain as His inaccessibility whose essence no man ever saw or can see. The more we know His grace the more let us own His proper majesty and our own place in respect of Him. He is the blessed and only Ruler, the King of those that reign, and Lord of those that exercise lordship, Who only hath immortality, to Whom be honor and eternal might, and the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ shall show it.
