They Shall See God H. Allen Hanson

Jesus said, ?Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God.? (Matthew 5:8). The Bible progressively reveals a glorious description of God the Father, beginning with Moses in the book of Genesis and ending with what John saw in the book of Revelation. The author has done massive research showing that the Bible is full of descriptions of the glory of God. This is a unique book, one of kind, about the visual glory of God. It is incredible that nothing has been written about this aspect of the glory of God since one of the basic meanings of glory is visual brilliance and splendor. It is true that no man has seen God because He has hidden him Himself for several reasons. Man would die if he saw Him. Man would make an idol of Him. God desires that man have faith in an unseen God. Many theologians maintain that God cannot be seen, that He has no face or form because He is spirit, invisible, and omnipresent. The book addresses these concepts. Jesus, however, said that He has seen God and that angels see His face. This book should be in the shelves of every seminary, Bible school, minister?s study, and in the hand of every person as a help in Bible study or in seeking to know more about God. May it inspire every Christian to anticipate that day in heaven when they shall see Jesus and God the Father.
