Last night at Collide we had a great discussion about knowing God. We had asked, “On a scale of 1-10 (1 being very little and 10 being very well), how well would you say you know God?”
Think about how well or lack thereof you know God. As you think about knowing God, I want to challenge you to set up parameters for knowing God. One might say they know God as an 8 or 9 because they have ready the Bible and live by it. Another might say God is infinite so I only know God as a 2.
Consider 1 John 2:3-5
3 Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. 4 He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.
The reality of “knowing God” is this…. How well do I Obey God?
In His Mighty Grip,
Mark
