"And the Lord was sorry..."

Genesis 6:6 "And the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth"

AELW2:45
"I follow this general rule: to avoid as much as possible any questions that carry us to the throne of the Supreme Majesty. It is better and safer to stay at the manger of Christ the Man."

And...

AELW2:49
"The incarnate Son of God is, therefore, the covering in which the Divine Majesty presents Himself to us with all His gifts, and does so in such a manner that there is no sinner too wretched to be able to approach Him with the firm assurance of obtaining pardon. This is the one and only view of the Divinity that is available and possible in this life. But on the Last Day those who have died in this faith will be so enlightened by heavenly power that they will see even the Divine Majesty Itself. Meanwhile we must come to the Father by that way which is Christ Himself; He will lead us safely, and we shall not be deceived."
