Bible Note: Hello CSM, No, I wouldn't call that glory "understanding." We understand certain things about God in that: The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law. Deut 29:29 (ESV) We strive to understand so that we know what he desires and expects. We thank him for his steadfast love to the children of men. We praise him for his mighty acts. We worship him for who he is as he has revealed himself. God's glory encompasses more than our understanding of him. Steve |
