THEY THINK THEY HAVE HIM FIGURED OUT

THEY THINK THEY HAVE HIM FIGURED OUT

This bewildered, confused, religious world (unaware of their confusion) thinks it has the inexhaustible, incomprehensible God of all creation figured out. A god that can be figured out is not God at all. That god is a figment of the imagination and does not exist. A man may draw up a few guidelines of religious order, he may devise a neat layout of program and form and fit the god of his mind into it and miss the true God altogether and never know it.
Do you suppose that could be what is described by our Lord in Matthew 7:21-23; “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord’ have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name? And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.’”
What a poor fool misses by mere religion that man, who does the will of His Father, receives by divine revelation the nature of God, which is His Spirituality. By missing this they never see more than ‘the man upstairs’. John Gill said, “A nature belongs to every creature that which is difficult to understand; and so to God which is most difficult of all.” What a statement! On that statement let me give you a question to ponder -- how do men think they have the God of the Bible figured out when they can’t begin to understand one another?
Let me give you an even better quote than Mr. Gill’s -- Job’s friend, Zophar asked this question, “Can you, by searching, find out God? Can you find out the almighty to perfection” (Job 11:7). Paul said this in I Corinthians 1:21, “The World” (even the wisest of the wise) “by wisdom knew not God.”
The incomprehensibleness of God is a fact, yet a fact that should not despair believers from searching after Him. Somewhat of God’s nature may be apprehended by our minds, yet can never be fully understood. Though we can never fully comprehend God there is a source of apprehension and that source is Christ. Phillip said to Him, “Show us the Father and it will satisfy us, Christ said to Phillip, have I been so long with you and you have not seen the Father? If you have seen me you have seen the Father.” Paul gives the source of “finding out” God in his second letter to the Corinthians, chapter four, and verse six. He said, “God gives the light of the knowledge of His glory in the face” (margin, Person) “of Jesus Christ.”
Study theology for theology is good, but study Christ because Christology is better. ~~Terry Worthan, 8-18-38 / 3-11-22
