Randy Alcorn quotes Jonathan Edwards who asserted that what we see of God in others will bring us the greatest delight. God is our greatest "happy making sight." Seeing Him is our greatest pleasure.

Christoplatonism—there’s a word that you don’t hear every day. It’s actually a word that I made up (probably the only word I’ve ever made up!) and used in my comprehensive Heaven book to speak of the Christianized philosophy of Plato.
