And I will be gracious to whom I will\n             be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will\n             show mercy.\n        20   But, he said, you cannot see my face, for man\n             shall not see me and live.''  (ESV)\n\n        Moses, desiring to know more about God, asked, ``Please show\n   me Your glory.''  God replied:\n        And he said, ``I will make all my goodness pass before\n        you and will proclaim before you my name `The LORD.'\n        And I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and\n        will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.  But, he\n        said, you cannot see my face, for man shall not see me\n        and live.''\n\n\n        God, in His love, grace, and mercy, knows that sinners\n   cannot see His full glory and live.  In our sinfulness, we cannot\n   comprehend His holiness, nor can we begin to view His face.  In\n   the same way we cannot look directly at the sun without damaging\n   our eyes, we cannot look at God without losing our lives.\n\n        However, God is merciful and will reveal Himself, as much as\n   He can, to those who have faith in Him.  Jesus, the Son of God,\n   revealed that God so loved the world that He would sacrifice His\n   only-begotten Son in order that people would be saved from sin\n   and death.  In Heaven, which is God's gracious gift to those who\n   are faithful to Him in this life, we will behold His face.\n\n        We do see God's face in Jesus, who hid Himself in our flesh\n   to live, die, and rise again for our salvation.  In this way, God\n   gives us His undeserved love and mercy.  Through Christ Jesus He\n   calls us to be with Himself, even as our first parents were with\n   Him in the Garden of Eden.\n\n        May you know the love of our Father through Jesus Christ,\n   His Son.  Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadcast<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1442","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-musings"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1442","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1442"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1442\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1443,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1442\/revisions\/1443"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1442"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1442"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1442"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
