Are those faces of god his attributes? How then are they a connection?
I call it a living connection, because it's not simply conceptual, but in a way God's light and his spirit, resides within us, without God being actually in anything rather he is above all things, and above similarity.
The Name/face of God is light with all light, light that unites all light, and God is the light of all light. This light is not simply a lifeless force, but is living knowledge, living connection of his command that is the true nature of existence and his word "be and it is".
The Name/Face of God gives light to all things and guides them towards their destination.
When God created the spirit, he mixed that of the light of eternal (himself) with that of the time (finite light). The mixing is such that he is with us at all times and is found in all stages, and appears to his creation through his name/face/connection.
The light is that speaks of "attributes" of God but in reality, all attributes of God describe single reality and perfect glory/beauty, and God is without diversity but is One.
The thing is this takes "eyes of the heart" and "sight of the soul" to see.
