Seeing the Unseen God
John Davis
"No one has ever seen God..." So writes John the Apostle (John 1:18; 1 John 4:12). And yet, scattered throughout the Bible are examples of people who talk about their holy pursuit to do just that—see God. We even find hints that some succeeded! What about us? Can we see God today?
Seeing the Unseen God is a devotional, biblical study of the pursuit to do something the biblical writers tell us is both impossible and essential at the same time. It cannot be done, and yet we cannot know God without it. We will examine themes such as God's revelation of Himself, the dangers and benefits of images of God, spiritual sight and blindness, the biblical theme of light, seeing God in suffering, and more.
