And don't forget dagallen, Jesus also said this at John 6:46, "Not that any man HAS SEEN THE FATHER EXCEPT HE WHO IS FROM GOD; He hath seen the Father."
So here is my questionj dagallen? It says at Genesis 17:1,2 the following: "Now when Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD APPEARED to Abram and said to him, "I AM GOD ALMIGHTY; Walk before Me, and be blameless. vs2, And I will establish My covenant between Me and you, And I will multiply you exceedingly." Who appeared to Abram dagallen?

Of course Abraham lived dagallen. Man cannot see God's full "Shekinah Glory or in His fullness" And remember the verse I just gave at John 6:46 where it says, "Not that any man hath see the Father," So again, who did Abraham see that is clearly identified as God Almighty at Genesis 17:1? And keep in mind I am asking you the question? I already the answer so please tell me your answer and why?

what it means when the scriptures say "for no man has yet seen God" is that no man on earth has seen God in his true glory in the beatific vision not even Moses at Mt. Sinai saw this but Moses and Abraham and many others did indeed see God but not in the fullness of his sacred essence this is why such statements are not conflicting
No dagallen. Look at it this way? Man's nature is that of human and every man woman and child has the nature of human. You are a "distinct" person from your mother or father and other humans yet you all share the same exact nature. If I were looking at you I would be seeing you, not your father or mother.
God's nature is that of deity and His nature is what separates Him from all that is not deity. So when I look at Jesus Christ I'm looking at God the Son. I am not looking at God the Father because God the Father cannot be seen. I can't even be looking at God the Holy Spirit because He cannot be seen.
So when Jesus Christ told Philp at John 14:9, "He who has seen Me has seen the Father" He did not mean that He/Jesus is God the Father. Jesus Christ is God the Son because Jesus Christ is the ONE AND ONLY physical manifestation of God the Father. They are "NOT" two gods or three gods they are three distinct persons of the One God just like you a distinct person from your parents but what you have in common (like I said) is you have the same nature.
