Waddel posits that God's ways are mysterious and should not be judged by us as we cannot fully understand his reasoning. He then describes the reasons why we may wish to see God in the flesh, why it is wise that God not appear to us, and why he chooses to withhold his revelation.</dc:description><dc:format>application/pdf</dc:format><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:rights>http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NoC-US/1.0/</dc:rights><dc:subject>Presbyterian Church in the U.S.--Sermons--19th century</dc:subject><dc:subject>Presbyterian Church in the U.S.--Theology</dc:subject><dc:subject>Invisibility--Religious aspects</dc:subject><dc:subject>Revelation--Presbyterians</dc:subject><dc:subject>Spirit</dc:subject><dc:subject>Training</dc:subject><dc:subject>Faith</dc:subject><dc:title>Exodus 33:20, John 14:9</dc:title><dc:type>Text</dc:type></oai_dc:dc>
