Can we completely understand God?
For He looks to the ends of the earth, and sees under the whole heavens, to establish a weight for the wind, and apportion the waters by measure. Job 28:24-25
There are certain things God is not going to reveal. And that’s good news. Who wants to believe in a God they can put in a box and completely understand? Not me.
We can know God. Through Jesus Christ, His Son, we can know Him. And we can know Him through what He has revealed in His Word. You can take a bucket down to the ocean and dip out a bucket full of water. Everything in that bucket is ocean, but not all the ocean is in the bucket. And with our bucket-size minds, we are never going to know all there is about God. I’m not. You’re not. Nobody is.
Deuteronomy 29:29 says, “The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.”
