“If God were to reveal Himself in human form and grant a direct relationship by giving Himself, for example, the figure of a man six yards tall, then our hypothetical society man and captain of the hunt would doubtless have his attention aroused. But the spiritual relationship to God in truth, when God refuses to deceive, requires just that there be nothing remarkable about the figure, so that the society man would have to say: ‘There is nothing whatever to see.’”
