How Do We Know God ??
The God of the Bible is one who reveals Himself to His creation.
God creating man with mental and spiritual faculties indicates His intention that know Him, However since the fall of man , these mental and spiritual faculties have been dulled and he cannot of himself discover God.
Thus God, in grace and love, has taken the initiative by giving a progressive revelation of Himself consummating in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Man can only personally know God through Christ.
We can know God for one reason only: God has made himself known.
If God had not chosen to do this, we could not have known him.
That is, God is not accessible through our senses, our reason, our experience, or any other means apart from his willingness to be accessible.
Our knowledge of God is absolutely dependent upon divine revelation; and not only is he willing to be known, he desires to be known.
