Attributes of God - Part 2

God is Invisible

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: - Romans 1:20

God is invisible, but we see the evidence of him through the things that are made.

Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: - Colossians 1:15

Curious wording isn't it? The implication is that there is a visible God. The LORD appeared unto Abram, yet he didn't see God.

For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: - Colossians 1:16

Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. - 1 Timothy 1:17

By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible. - Hebrews 11:27

Moses endured as though he had seen him who is invisible. Moses didn't see the invisible God.

Either the only wise God (there is an unwise one) is invisible or he is not.  John said that no man had seen God at any time.  Therefore, the only wise God has never been visible to any man.  Yet LORD God was seen by many.  Again, the Bible makes it plain that the only wise God and LORD God cannot ever be one and the same.  The two are different persons.
