Here we do see him but dimly and darkly, at the best, and there are oftentimes clouds come in, and interpose themselves, between Christ and us: but then we shall see him face to face, and never shall there cloud come between Christ and us to all eternity. There we shall see him in his Glory, his full discoveries.

Here we enjoy him but in part. The distance is great betwixt him and us. All which distance doth arise from that within us. Were it not for sin we might be in Glory, even in Grace. But then we shall enjoy him in fullness.
Here wee injoy him but in part. The distance is great betwixt him and us. All which distance doth arise from that within us. Were it not for sin wee might bee in Glory, even in Grace. But then wee shall injoy him in fulness.
Heaven is the place, which God hath intended to set forth himself to his People in his Glory, to all eternity. Where there shall be no fears, no sin, never smoke of distrustful thoughts shall arise more. Where there shall be no sorrow, no tears. All sighing and sobbing shall pass away, and nothing but joy shall keep the house.
