I wonder...

When Adam's eyes first opened, what did God's face look like?

  1. Whatever the Lord's face looked like, we know that Adam's face was radiant, gazing upon it. a

  2. Thanks for the comment Heidi!

    You're right that Adam's probably glowed with the glory. I'm guessing similarly to how Moses' did when he spent time in God's presence.

    How I answer the question as asked is revealing about my concept of God's emotions though. This revelation about how I perceive God's face gives me an opportunity to evaluate my view to see how well it matches up with what scripture says about God and his emotions. This leads to the possibility of changing my perception of Him to one that's more in line with His true nature rather than my conception of who He is.

Comments are welcome but I do moderate them. This is simply to keep things wholesome for general family viewing. By default, comments will be accepted. The few things that will cause a comment to be rejected are:

1. It is too long even though it may be well-written and make interesting points. It's supposed to be a comment, not an essay. If you have that much to say, write a blog article and backlink to me.

2. It is nasty, impolite or uses language that is unacceptable.

3. It includes a a link that has a typo or is broken in some other way.

4. It should have been sent as an e-mail since it is clearly addressed to me and does not appear to have been intended for other readers.

5. It is blatantly self-promotional. This does not mean it can't be self-promotional at all, but it should add some value over and above the marketing.
