Conceive and comprehend are two different concepts to me. Surely I can
conceive of infinity, but can I comprehend it? Can I fully understand it?
All of it? To do so, either it would have to be finite or I would have to
be inifnite.

By that I assume you mean the physical universe. Don't know; either way
it's too big for me to fully comprehend.

It is not God that is becoming finite. It is a finite revelation of God, so
that we can comprehend Him.
