WHO DWELLS IN UNAPPROACHABLE LIGHT?

you said only the father dwells in unapproachable light, even before the incarnation, i even asked if the holy Spirit dwells in that light and you said NO.

Trinity is derived not from the Bible but from outsource. God is light and is unapproachable. That's why there was a command:

Ge 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

2Co 4:6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

Heb 1:3 (The Son) Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;


We couldn't approach God (no creature can) in transcendence (dwelling on high, above the heavens) and He wanted the creatures to know Him and see Him face to face in His similitude:

Ps 113:4 The LORD is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high, 
6 Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!

The humility of God is seen in Christ bowing down the heavens and visiting the lowly man.

God in transcedence (unapproachable light/invisible) was all alone with His own Logos and His own Spirit. Both Logos and Spirit were internal to God until distribution in immanence. The Logos defines/qualifies God. It's God's Logos that was manifested in flesh while God still remained in transcendence. The Logos was God while still remained internal to God. God can't become flesh but can manifest in flesh because God still has to be transcendent. We can have His similitude in immanence but God still remains transcendent. That's what happened in OT when The Angel of His Face appeared to people. It's His similitude in immanence but God still in transcendence. When they saw this similitude, people claimed they saw the LORD. This similitude of the LORD was still internal within the transcendent God. 

In case of Christ, He was totally externalized as The Son in order to adopt us as sons of God. He was made in the likeness of men (Phil 2) - total keno-sis. He was made completely mortal like us to taste death like us. After His ascension, He went back to God (Eph 4:8-10 -on High) and thus not only internal to God as He fills all things as the life giving Spirit but also is externally visible to the creatures (now angels) and one day we shall see Him face to face. No creature can ascend ON HIGH but only Christ who proceeded forth from God (as The Logos of God) and went back to God.
