Bible Note: "Imitate God in this His adorable perfection, by 'speaking the truth in love,' Ephesians 4:15. Let the strictest rules of truth and sincerity be observed by you in all your dealings and intercourse with men. Lay aside all lying, falsehood, and dissimulation, all equivocations and secret reservations in your words and promises, and speak the truth every man with his neighbor. ...we have given you a short description of what God is. Imperfect it is, and imperfect it must be, seeing He is incomprehensible. Do ye study to believe what is taught you of God, and apply to Him [approach Him], through the Son of His love, for further discoveries of His glorious perfections and excellencies; and at length ye shall see Him as He is, having a more enlarged and extensive knowledge of Him, His nature and ways; though even then ye will not be able to comprehend Him. For it was a wise and judicious answer of one that was asked, What God is? that if he knew that fully, he should be a God himself. And indeed that being which we can comprehend, cannot be God, because He is infinite. O study God and ye will increase in the knowledge of Him." --Thomas Boston |
