Very interesting analogy. We cannot "see God" unless we have, in a sense, the dimensions of God. This is not a natural capacity, or even a capacity imaginable to a person who is not "in Christ."

As always, analogical language. Or as the Church says, anagogical: leading us to the very reality of that analogy.

Absolutely, totally, completely, 100% correct. We have no clue whatsoever of even beginning to imagine or understand this. 1 Cor 2:9, eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those that love Him.

On the other hand, I also suspect that eye has not seen, and ear has not heard, and it hasn't entered into the hearts of men, the things God has prepared for those that DON'T love Him too. That's what needs to be avoided at ALL costs. I intend to avoid those kinds of hassles.
