May 27, 2024 · Being short, or any physical attribute, does not impact a person's spiritual relationship with God or their potential to attain heavenly glory. Does the Bible provide guidance on how we should view our physical bodies?
Apr 24, 2013 · The internal lines identify the nature, substance, or essence of each person: The Father is God. The Son is God. The Holy Spirit is God.

Mar 20, 2018 · Thus there is a sense in which humans can see God and a sense in which we cannot. We cannot see God’s invisible spiritual essence, but some people were able to see Him when He revealed Himself by appearing to them in various physical forms adapted to created eyes.

The Old Testament and the New Testament make both of these dimensions of God’s character plain, it seems to me, but they put the emphasis in different places. The Old Testament is, as it were, standing on tiptoes, looking over the horizon of the future, waiting and wondering how God could ever create a people who could come boldly into his presence...
Feb 20, 2017 · You see that there are two different senses in which his people can see God and two senses in which they cannot see God. So, let me break these out and see if people can follow me.
