8. The eyes of the Glorified Body shall in Heaven have a Glory to behold that is suitable to their Bodily capacity: Heaven being not a place where the Essence of God is confined, but where a prepared glory will be manifested to make Happy the Angels and Saints with Christ. And whatever other senses the Glorified Bodies shall then have (whether formally or eminently, we cannot now conceive what they will be) they will all be satisfied with suitable Delights from God.
9. The Blessed person of our Redeemer in our Nature Glorified, will there be the Everlasting object of our delightful intuition and fruition: An object suitable to the eye of the Glorified Body ⟨p. 110⟩it self. We shall for ever live in the sight of his face, and in the sense of his unspeakable Love.

10. The Glorified Soul (whether mediately or immediately) shall behold the Infinite most Blessed God, and by knowing him, be perfected in knowledge: As we shall see the person of Jesus Christ, and the glory of God with open face, and not as in a glass as now we do, so we shall know so much of the Essence of the Deity as we are capable of, to our felicity.
