Bible Note: "God knows Himself because His knowledge with His will is the cause of all other things; ...He is the first truth, and therefore is the first object of His understanding... As He is all knowledge, so He hath in Himself the most excellent object of knowledge... No object is so intelligible to God as God is to Himself... for His understanding is His essence, Himself. God knows His own decree and will, and therefore must know all things... God must know what He hath decreed to come to pass... God must know because He willed them... He therefore knows them because He knows what He willed. The knowledge of God cannot arise from the things themselves, for then the knowledge of God would have a cause without Him... As God sees things possible in the glass of His own power, so He sees things future in the glass of His own will." --Stephen Charnock (1628-1680) |
