But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumphal procession
in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of
him. 2 Corinthians 2:14
Certainly
not all of the mystery of the Godhead can be known by man—but just as
certainly, all that men can know of God in this life is revealed in Jesus
Christ!
When
the Apostle Paul said with yearning, “That I may know Him,” he was not speaking
of intellectual knowledge. Paul was speaking of the reality of an experience of
knowing God personally and consciously, spirit touching spirit and heart
touching heart.
We
know that people spend a lot of time talking about a deeper Christian life—but
few seem to want to know and love God for Himself.
The
precious fact is that God is the deeper life! Jesus Christ Himself is the
deeper life, and as I plunge on into the knowledge of the triune God, my heart
moves on into the blessedness of His fellowship. This means that there is less
of me and more of God—thus my spiritual life deepens and I am strengthened in
the knowledge of His will!
