The Form Of God

 "The form of God is ineffable and indescribable, and cannot be seen with the eyes of flesh.  He is in his glory unattainable, in greatness incomprehensible, in loftiness inconceivable, in strength incomparable, in wisdom inaccessible, in love inimitable, in beneficence inexpressible.

Just as the soul of a man is not seen, since it is invisible to men, but we know of its existence through the movement of the body, so God cannot be seen by human eyes, but he is seen and known through his providence and his works."

- Theophilius of Antioch, The Orthodox Way, Kallistos Ware
