Topic The knowledge of Him
Focus : -1the necessity of knowing him.
:-2 The benefits of knowing him.
Intro . The search for the knowledge of God is deeper than imagined , endless & no human on earth can boldly say I know him in totalitly . The level at which he reveals himself to man, is the level he wants you to operate .this varies from man to man.
Because God is formless , so the search to know him has been endless.
It is verified & confirmed, tested & a proven fact that man ( homosapiens ) is adventurous in nature .
He is always either seeking to know a thing for the purpose of awareness & knowledge or seeking to know for the purpose of identification & repositioning. All translating to advancement.
Man was created for motion, to change levels ,so it is a satanic error to be stagnated.
There are help forces waiting to reveal itself to man so to change mans position
Man was made for the top, but he has to meet certain requirements to move to that top. Gal 2:2 knowledge is power.
2peter 3:18
