There are also many appearances, manifestations as well, such as fire, wings, feathers, etc.

We can finally know approximately what He looks like, because when He came, He came in the form of a man. When we see Him, we will see Him as He would have looked on earth.
i think love and holiness are equal. if god were mainly holy that would leave little room for mercy. imho.
