All tagged Knowing God

We have knowledge of Jesus, and often think that is enough; we study and know of Him and think this is the pinnacle of righteousness, but it isn’t. We think that by our understanding we can find the fullness of God but we are mistaken. Loving God and Jesus Christ surpasses all else, and our knowledge, and the other things, are only meant to help increase our ability to love them more. Loving, and being loved by Jesus; this is the way we can experience the fullness of God.

What do we know about Jesus, God, and our faith? Have we read the Bible cover to cover, and memorized key scriptures? Have we taught Sunday school lessons, or preached the Word from the pulpit? Or, perhaps we have learned and spoken on the subject of Church history, and all the councils and creeds... but does this bring us an inch closer to knowing God? My real question this morning is this... “do you know God, or just know of God?”
