Chapter 3 — Part I — Article I (Of God the Father)
Section 88. Q. If God is a Spirit, how does holy Scripture ascribe to him bodily parts, as heart, eyes, ears, hands? A. Holy Scripture in this suits itself to the common language of men; but we are to understand such expressions in a higher and spiritual sense. For instance, the heart of God means his goodness or love; eyes and ears mean his omniscience; hands, his almighty power.
