BIBLE CONVERSATION 28. PERSONALITY. Divinity in humanity. The God that
is possible in man despite man's humanity. 1Jo 3:2 Beloved, now are we
the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: Until
some of us would see God as a Man we would never come to understand
how he sees us, who we are to him and the marvelous plan he has for
us. And, where we are going. See this. POWERFUL and UNSPEAKABLE! 1Jo
3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear
what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be
like him; for we shall see him as he is. If the Lord God himself made
you to look like him and to behave like him and if he says you shall
be like him, wouldn't it be very important to you to find out what he
looks like and how he behaves? Who exactly is that God that I look
like and that I am supposed to behave like? Truth be told: our level
of comprehension, our language CANNOT encompass God. Because our
comprehension and our language cannot describe ETERNITY. Picture this,
can you describe a spirit? Can you fathom a spirit? What if there had
been no God? Mediate on this and you will fall into a void – a
blackhole! The Lord God found it really tricky to get a MAN called
Moses to katalambano or grasp or comprehend or fathom the fullness of
God. All he could manage was: Ex 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM
THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of
Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. The I AM? The I AM THAT I AM!!!
This is saying something without talking! Mediate on this and you will
fall into a void. Words fail us when we try to describe the God we are
speeding to. But Adam Clark made this brilliant attempt: Many attempts
have been made to define the term GOD: as to the word itself, it is
pure Anglo-Saxon, and among our ancestors signified, not only the
Divine Being, now commonly designated by the word, but also good; as
in their apprehensions it appeared that God and good were correlative
terms; and when they thought or spoke of him, they were doubtless led
from the word itself to consider him as THE GOOD BEING, a fountain of
infinite benevolence and beneficence towards his creatures. A general
definition of this great First Cause, as far as human words dare
attempt one, may be thus given: The eternal, independent, and
self-existent Being: the Being whose purposes and actions spring from
himself, without foreign motive or influence: he who is absolute in
dominion; the most pure, the most simple, and most spiritual of all
essences; infinitely benevolent, beneficent, true, and holy: the cause
of all being, the upholder of all things; infinitely happy, because
infinitely perfect; and eternally self-sufficient, needing nothing
that he has made: illimitable in his immensity, inconceivable in his
mode of existence, and indescribable in his essence; known fully only
to himself, because an infinite mind can be fully apprehended only by
itself. In a word, a Being who, from his infinite wisdom, cannot err
or be deceived; and who, from his infinite goodness, can do nothing
but what is eternally just, right, and kind. Reader, such is the God
of the Bible; but how widely different from the God of most human
creeds and apprehensions!
