Knowing Him Who Knows Us Fully
In Paul's Doxology found in Romans 11:33-36, it says: "Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unfathomable (inscrutable, unsearchable) are His judgments (His decisions)! And how untraceable (mysterious, undiscoverable) are His ways (His methods, His paths)! For who has known the mind of the Lord and who has understood His thoughts, or who has [ever] been His counselor? Or who has first given God anything that he might be paid back or that he could claim a recompense? For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. [For all things originate with Him and come from Him; all things live through Him, and all things center in and tend to consummate and to end in Him.] To Him be glory forever! Amen (so be it)." (AMPC) When we read in Scripture how God knows everything, that He's, all-knowing, the theological term is: Omniscient. And of course if He's Omniscient then He knows everything there is to know about us! More incredible yet, the One Who knows all things grants us the awesome privilege of knowing Him! How awesome is that?! So do you know Him? Would you like to?
