III. The Veil is done away in Christ.

He shows us God, instead of our own false conceptions of Him, which are but distorted refractions of His true likeness. Only within the limits of Christ's revelation is there knowledge of God, as distinguished from guesses, doubtful inferences, partial glimpses. Elsewhere, the greatest certitude as to Him is a peradventure'; Jesus alone says Verily, verily.' Jesus makes us able to see God. Jesus makes us delight in seeing Him.

All dread of the steady whole of the Judge's face' is changed to the loving heart's joy in seeing its Beloved.
