Grace and peace be multiplied unto your through the Knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the Knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue.
Human limitation; finite mind and sin limits our capacity to understand spiritual truths, and the mere fact that every thing to know about God hasn’t been revealed.
As I begin I feel a little like the late Art Linkletter, who saw a little boy drawing a picture and asked. “What are you doing?” The boy replied, “I’m drawing a picture of God.” Mr. Link letter said, “Well, I thought that no one knew what God looked like.” The boy looked up confidently and said, “They will when I get through.”
The study of the Knowledge of God is the most important pursuit in life.
*Simply to say there is a God doesn’t say a whole lot about him. Only awareness of him.
*More than that you have information about God; that is, knowing that he is the creator, powerful, big, grand, or majestic. Those are all true, but they’re most sufficient when we talk about knowing God.
*More than a religious experience with God, but to know him involves more than that.
To know God is to have him RUBBED OFF on you, to enter into relationship with God, so that who he is INFLUENCES who you are. One of the great tragedies today is that you can go to church and be aware of God; you can go to church and have information about God; and if your church has a great choir, you can evil “feel” God; but you can leave church with Him never having rubbed off on you.
Life’s Most Meaningful Pursuit
It’s amazing how many things we brag about. Some of us can brag about our educational achievements. We’ve gone through school and we’ve done well. We’ve got a bachelor’s degree. We’ve earned a master’s degree. Perhaps we even graduated magna cum laude. We get recognition for that achievement. People call us by name, they give us titles, and, if we are not careful, we might boast about that.
“But let him that glorieth (boast) glory in this,
That he understandeth and knoweth me….’Jere 9:23 & 24
