The Finite cannot declare the Infinite.

While creation does declare the glory and attributes of God, creation is entirely insufficient, inadequate, and incapable of declaring the glory of God fully. Why? Because creation is finite, God is infinite. Creation presents billions of stars, but God's wisdom and power and glory and knowledge is finite; a billion is a lot less than an infinite number. My mind freezes because it is too much to consider or understand. The Finite cannot declare the Infinite. The Finite heavens, full of billions of galaxies, cannot declare the Infinite. They cannot declare God's infinite knowledge, power, wisdom, glory, goodness, greatness. They are "expressions" of His glory, but no expression will be exhaustive, because expressions are always finite, and the glory is always infinite.
