Knowing God

1:5 – Reveal

“He lowered the heavens and descended, with clouds under his feet” (Psalm 17:9). There is no doubt that the idea of God in man seems “innate” and attached.

Chapter Four - The God of Advertising

Man cannot know the divine truth, that is, he cannot know the essence of God, but only knows the uncreated actions of God, that is, His effects. However, the Church tradition and the Holy Bible speak of specific appearances of God, the most important of which was His appearance to Abraham in the form of three angels. The Church Fathers say that this event is the first appearance of the Holy Trinity in the Old Testament.

Chapter Three - Divine Acts

ينبغي أن نميّز إذاً بين جوهر الله وبين أفعاله الإلهية. فالإنسان لا يستطيع أن يعرف جوهر الله، إنما بإمكانه أن يعرف أفعاله أو قدراته التي لا تنفصل عن جوهره. ولهذا شبّهها الآباء بشعاع الشمس الذي يعمل خارج نطاقها (الشمس) مع انه غير منفصل عنها

Chapter Two - Knowing the Truth

By knowing God, we do not mean understanding Him logically, but rather a personal encounter with Him. When a person surrenders completely to God, desires to meet Him, and yearns for Him, and after passing through the dark cloud of ignorance, God comes to him, illuminates everything around him, and reveals Himself to him.
