On p45 of Knowledge of the Holy, Tozer writes:
When we say that God is infinite we mean that He knows no bounds. Whatever God is and all that God is, He is without limit. And here again we must break away form the popular meaning of words. “Unlimited wealth” and “boundless energy” are further examples of misuse of words. Of course no wealth is unlimited and no energy boundless unless we are speaking of the wealth and energy of God.Again, to say that God is infinite is to say that He is measureless. Measurement is the way created things have of accounting for themselves. It describes limitations, imperfections, and cannot apply to God….It is the way we see the works of His hands, but no thte way we see Him. He is above all this, outside of it, beyond it.
And yet, in Christ we find a Person who is remarkably measurable, who grew in stature (which was certainly measureable to his carpenter father Joseph), who lived at a certain time and place. This Christ, paradox of infinitude and limitation, came to reveal what could not otherwise be known. Infinitude revealed through a limited reflection.
