What an adorable being is the Triune God! How gloriously mysterious in his being, attributes, operations, and personal acts! How little are we capable of knowing of this infinite Being. “None by searching can find out the Almighty to perfection.” Where the feelings of the heart are right, the incomprehensible nature of the divine existence causes no obstruction to genuine devotion.

Indeed, the soul of man is so constituted as to require an incomprehensible Being as the object of worship. Profound adoration is the very feeling which corresponds with this attribute.. Were it not so, the angels in heaven would be perplexed and unhappy; for the more is known of God, the more mysteries are perceived in the divine character.

For the reference, see Archibald Alexander on the Triune God as an adorable being.
