He Alone Is Immortal and Dwells in Unapproachable Light
1 Timothy 6:16

1 Timothy 6:16 He alone is immortal and dwells in unapproachable light. No one has ever seen Him, nor can anyone see Him. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
God is holy. Because of this, He is unapproachable in our present, fallen condition.
However, Scripture teaches that when Christ appears, we will be transformed to be like Him. This transformation will remove our present limitations and enable us to see Him as He is.
One day, we will dwell in the fullness of His glory. Therefore, look forward to that day and purify yourself in hope.

Observe Jesus’ Commands
Don’t worry about your life, about what you will eat or drink, about your body, about what you will wear, or about what will happen tomorrow. Prioritize God’s kingdom and righteousness. Trust that He will provide for you.
Matthew 6:25-34 Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air: They do not sow or reap or gather into barns—and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? 28 And why do you worry about clothes? Consider how the lilies of the field grow: They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was adorned like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the Gentiles strive after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Today has enough trouble of its own. (Luke 12:22-31)
