also realize that He has also been manifest in the Person of Jesus Christ who said, "He that hath seen Me hath also seen the Father." The Saviour's assuming the form of a man was so that we could under stand, comprehend and visualize more readily God's love and grace. The fact is, no one knows what shape God takes. Anything that would attempt to be explicit would have to be erroneous. Q. " Would you please explain what the Lord meant in Matthew 23:37 when He declared, 'How often would I have gathered thy chil dren'? Was He giving Israel a last and final chance to accept Him as King?" A. Christ was willing to be accepted as Israel's Messiah. For such He was, right up to the very end. In
this passage we see more human pathos than could ever be ex pressed by any other individual. The word "Jerusalem" is used twice because of the intense feeling and depth of His agony. This portion, however, is not dealing with a last and final chance for the Jews to accept Him as King. He is simply saying, "Why have you not real ized the hour of your marvelous opportunity?" A similar section is found in Luke 19:41, 42. One can not keep putting off marvelous in vitations and opportunities from God endlessly. There comes a time when the day of grace will end for you as it did for Israel nationally. Q. "Who are the sons of God in Genesis 6? Are they men of the godly line of Seth or fallen angels? Also would you please explain who the giants are?''
