God is One, and Infinite. The true quality of the Infinite does not
appear; for the human mind, however highly analytical and exalted, is
itself finite, and the finiteness in it cannot be laid aside. It is
not fitted, therefore, to see the Infinity of God, and thus God, as He
is in Himself, but can see God from behind in shadow; as it is said of
Moses, when he asked to see God, that he was placed in a cleft of the
rock, and saw His hinder side. It is enough to acknowledge God from
things finite, that is, created, in which He is infinitely.

"INTO HIS MARVELLOUS LIGHT"
We read in the Word that Jehovah God dwells in light inaccessible.
Who, then, could approach Him, unless He had come to dwell in
accessible light, that is, unless He had descended and assumed a
Humanity and in it had become the Light of the world? Who cannot see
that to approach Jehovah the Father in His light is as impossible as
to take the wings of the morning and to fly with them to the sun?
