And I will take away my hand, and you shall see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.
Can you by searching find out God? can you find out the Almighty to perfection?
See, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
And he said, You can not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.
No man has seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he has declared him.
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
Who only has immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach to; whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen.
