  1. How can one ‘know’ they’ve seen God face to face in the Beatific Vision, if God’s nature is incomprehensible?
  2. Is the knowledge of the blessed greater than even the brightest mind of someone still alive in Earth?
 
  1. Because God makes Himself known to us. He transcends our natural created abilities. He allows us to know Him in His essence intuitively without our ever being able to comprehend Him exhaustively.
  2. Yes, ineffably so in terms of this “knowledge of God”, this intellectual vision known as the Beatific Vision. The greatest intellect here completely lacks this knowledge unless they’ve been given a “glimpse”, so to speak, as some believers have received.
