It was
only through Christ that we could at first approach God; and it is only
through him that the privilege is continued to us. And this access to God,
or introduction to the Divine presence, is to be considered as a lasting
privilege. We are not brought to God for the purpose of an interview, but to
remain with him; to be his household; and, by faith, to behold his face, and
walk in the light of his countenance. - Adam
Clarke
