What is the correct view of the truth?

There is no God here save the One True God, and Christ, who is His manifestation. 

An idolator, in spirit, asks if he might see Christ.

Shortly after this, Christ manifested Himself in dim light to him, and to others, who had newly arrived in the world of spirits, because, at this stage, they could not have endured a full exhibition of His glory, for His glory is so surpassing that even the angels look on Him with difficulties, and cover their faces with their wings (Isaiah vi.2).

When He does reveal Himself to anyone, He takes into account the particular stage of progress to which that soul has attained, so He appears dimly or in the fuller light of His glory that the sight of Him may be endured.

Bathed in the rays of His life-giving light, and with the waves of His love, which constantly flow out from Him, flowing over all, all error is washed away.
